While discussing the poor trade relations with Henry Kissinger, Mao made an offer to improve the situation in one area…
He suggested sending tens of thousands to the US, but later in the conversation increased his offer to 10 million.
The remark provoked laughter and was clearly meant as a joke, but Mao went on to complain that Chinese women were giving birth to too many children.
If they were sent to the US he said, they would flood the country with disaster.

I’ll be interested to see whether there is any response to this from China.
 
ha, the Chinese don’t actually let people read reports on Mao except for the propaganda released by the government.
