Yes, China gets things done. There are actually internal debates on policy. I know I’ve been there and interviewed people in government on policy issues and was given free rein to talk to people in government, academia and the private sector. They spy on everyone and men more so on foreigners.
Yet, the innovations that drive their growth were stolen from the West. We are the fools for helping them become a superpower on theft and not creating better trade deals. Trump is absolutely right about that.
We also have become infected with self-loathing by our moonlit Leftists. China does not tolerate self-loathing. I think that is the bottom line. The Chinese are proud of being Chinese and proud of the Han culture and will do everything to preserve it.
Half our population wants to destroy us — poisoned by the Left. The Left Delenda Est — or we die.
Let me correct my typos! And add a little more bombast!

The innovations that drive their growth were stolen from the West. We are the fools for helping them become a superpower on theft of our intellectual property and by not creating better trade deals. Trump is absolutely right about that.
We also have become infected with self-loathing by our moonbat arrogant Leftists. China does not tolerate self-loathing. I think that is the bottom line difference between the two nations. The Chinese are proud of being Chinese and proud of the Han culture and will do everything to preserve it.
Half our population wants to destroy us — poisoned by the Left who lord their shallow intellectual tripe over us. The Left is supremely confident and they use their bluster to intimidate the population.
The reason the Left hates Trump is that he bursts their bubbles of confidence — bubbles created out of their preening, strident hot air of grandiosity built on mendacity.
The Left Delenda Est — or we die!
Harrumph!
You’re both right.
It’s over!!
Except..
China is running a HORRIFIC debt to GDP...don’t worry doom sayers, I know ours is worse but their’s is increasing at a far more rapid percentage than ours is.
There are an INCREDIBLE AMOUNT of EMPTY CITIES!!
NEW CITIES, not abandoned ghettos.
They STEAL ideas very well, but they don’t much come up with new ones and in the end, it does hurt them.
Trump is ABSOLUTELY having an effect on their and our economy. Bad for them and good for us.
I live on Staten Island and the Bridge rebuilding was FAST and FANTASTIC. A beauty to watch it being constructed.
This “expert” say they have a smarter population. Inherently smarter? Maybe, I don’t know.
But individuality is what makes ingenuity thrive.
It’s what made our pilots SO MUCH better than Japanese pilots.
When ALL YOU KNOW HOW TO DO IS TAKE ORDERS, you are LOST when the order giver is gone, you have NO experience improvising. And adapting. And you die.
Are 45 percent of the folks in this country idiots? Probably.
The 2000 election was brutally close so at WORST we can say we’ve gotten no worse in 16 years.
And if you deduct the FIVE MILLION illegal votes for hillary, we’ve gotten better.
Let me ask you guys this.
RIGHT NOW, in in some theoretical future, which country would you rather live in?
Which country’s hospitals would you rather be in if you were deathly ill?
Which country’s navy would you depend on more to protect you?
Which country do you think STILL gives you FAR MORE individual freedom?
The cry me a river threads about America around here lately are, to be frank, Sickening.
The underestimation of America is sickening.
The throwing up of hands is sickening.
To print a thread that is full of half truths and guesses (Chinese are SMARTER? It didn’t say more well learned, it said SMARTER) is a sad state of affairs for the board.
Read the ENTIRE article folks before deciding that we are DOOMED, DOOMED I tell ya!!
Forget about it.
