China's "economic miracle"the period of rapid economic growth & development since the 1980'swas paid for by America. We capitalized China with $5.2 TRILLION in indirect investment, not to mention FDI & technological exports.
America made China great again.

In the process, we created a rival superpower. For what? "Cheap" goods. Well, cheap goods aren't so cheap when you don't have a job, and when you eventually have to pay for them with blood.
Also true of India. We bought India with American jobs and dollars, because we need a friend in South Asia ... to offset the Chinese.
And have you ever wondered why, when you order something on eBay that is shipped from China, “shipping is free”? Guess who’s paying for that?
(Us’uns.)
“We bought India with American jobs and dollars, because we need a friend in South Asia”
Is that an even trade, that is, is the worth of the needed jobs equal to the worth of the needed friendship? By rhe way, I’ve read that the Indian government doesn’t like the brain drain, so the jobs may not have been a U.S. favor to India.
Well, SOMEBODY had to replace the former Soviet Union after their almost total economic collapse, and the successors to Mao Ze-Dong filled the bill admirably. They seized the flag of “counterbalance to the US” and ran with it.
As for the rise of India, well, Japan was faltering badly, so a new place to exploit both cheap labor and technological innovation had to be found, as Japan had pretty much priced themselves out of the market on these counts.
The jobs could have been filled onshore, without exporting massive capital and enriching India at our own expense. Is it worth it? It depends on whether India’s loyalty lasts only as long as the money does.
This video is WRONG.
It was NOT America that built up China. It was ALL of the West. To deny that France had a role, that Germany had a role, that England had a role, that Canada had a role is just silly.
Everything that has happened over the last three decades are contributors to the way things are today. Youse guys need to take off your rose-colored glasses and recognize that the American leadership has NOT been working in the best interests for Americans. At least, not since Ronald Reagan.
American CEOs are are not just losers but their stupidity is legendary.
They saw a billion new customers with China. Sell globally. Well when you trade with slaves masters, when you compete with slaves, you become a slave.
It is basic economics they skipped in college.
China demanded partial ownership of all their companies. When GM invested hard money in a new car line, China copied the car and simply produced their own exact copy.
China doesn’t need American companies. Only one company traitor, or by simple demand, China produces EXACT copies of American products. Congress takes a cut of the profit.
CEOs have been stripped of all respect. They are dupes.
CEOs are losers in modern America, while Chinese generals have become billionaires.
China was never economically great until they sold their slave labor factories to the U.S.
Globalists fed that dragon and they’re heavily invested in China being the sole superpower.
The US Can be a non-sovereign country in some conglomeration like the EU as far as DNC donors and RINO handlers are concerned, just as long as their investments in China can pan out.
