******************************************************** Actually I have heard him talk about China several times, but I don't remember them all. The most recent was Greta, on his bus, and it wasn't detailed. He just pointed out it was either do it, or turn it over to China, and a few other points.

There was also a list of articles detailing reasons to do it including national security on one of the threads here several days ago. Below is a link to a long ago article about China.(they are just doing it for the benefit of humanity - doncah know?). Russia has also declared a desire to establish a base on the moon.
