the trade representative said, and I quote: China is guilty, guilty of attaching fraudulent ``Made in America'' labels to Chinese made products. She said she was surprised and, as a result, we are hitting China with a $94 million maximum penalty. Wow. What a surprise. Every worker in America knows that China has been ripping us off, ripping us off to the tune of now $60 billion a year. If that is not enough to stir your home fries, check this out. China is building the biggest army and the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world with our tax dollars. Think about it. Look, if the trade representative thinks that $94 million is a lot of money to China, then I believe she thinks that Viagra is a waterfall in West Virginia, folks. They do not know what the hell is going on. Beam me up with this policy. Mr. Speaker, I yield back what national security and common sense we have left.
