White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest says that the U.S. is still committed to a one-China policy, leaving Taiwan as a subservient nation to China. He seems to want to calm the world down, after Trump chatted with the Taiwanese leaders. But, should we calm the world down? The Taiwanese deserve more than the lot they’ve been given, and maybe it’s time for this forty-year policy to end. On the other hand, China owns a lot of our debt and it would be a problem if they sold it all off in a hurry. But either way, these questions will be left to the Trump administration to decide.
