Interesting post TF ..... the US definitely has a negative trade balance with 25 of their their top 30 trading partners .... see the link below for 2017. The numbers are hard to comprehend but the + - stats are interesting. So yes, the US seems to be importing more stuff than they export, but who is to blame for that? Hard to answer that question.
