you are cloyingly stating the obvious, China has low human rights etc but what your thick head doesn't understand is that We Really Ought To Copy The Way China Does Banking our financial system is based on FED printing currency and loaning it to US government We need to change that and copy China in that regard. As you can see Makloda some ETers are little more informed.

China has very significant debt. it just happens to be accounted for in ways that don't show up on our fiscal radar.
Always nice to see members talk about things they have no clue about. Chinese debt is non existent, they have surplus. They don't know the meaning of the word deficit. Try to switch from FOX to ........well......nothing is good really.
China has the largest military in the world. Over 7 Million.. more than twice ours. While we are wasting resources in the middle east they are patiently waiting on the sidelines for the right time...
Hmmm according to wikipedia, China has the longest continuous military history in the world and was the world's most advanced army for 2000 years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_history_of_China Song Dynasty: 1,250,000+. Ming Dynasty:1,400,000+ "Ever since Chinese civilization was founded by the Xia Dynasty (2200 BCE-1600 BCE), organized military forces have existed throughout China. The recorded military history of China extends from about 2200 BC to the present day.[1] China has the longest period of continuous development of military culture of any civilization in world history and had arguably one of the world's most advanced and powerful military for almost 2,000 years until the 18th century.[2] The Chinese armies pioneered the use of crossbows, gunpowder weapons, stirups, and other advanced weapons that enabled them to fend off attacks by their enemies and expand China's influence across much of Eastern and Central Asia but also adopted foreign weapon systems such as iron weapons, cavalry and western military technology.[3] In addition, China's armies also benefitted from an advanced logistics system as well as a rich strategic tradition, beginning with Sun Tzu's "The Art of war", that deeply influenced military thought[4]."
1 of our bombs can kill 250k members of their army. We have 1000s of similar sized bombs. People can do the math.
