Speaking of Chinese ambitions in the world, I am continually waiting for the "media" to share with Americans the reach that China really has into our economy. After the Dubai Ports World publicity, one could have expected at least a comment or two on Chinese control of huge ports, (including Freeport Grand Bahama) and shipping, as well as manufacturing.
Don't hold your breath maica.
Just like I heard Lanny Davis say to Christina van den Commie this morning "we are fellow travelers". So are the chinese and much of the Drive-bys. They are not about to say anything bad about their big buds.
One thing that worries a lot of people is the amount of foreign debt that china holds of ours. Billions and billions.
It's one thing for a Japan or another ally to hold such debt but China....that's another. If china gets big enough, and they are headed that way, they could slowly plan to sink our economy and not get hurt at all. Simply shift production and sales to other countries which they are doing as fast as humanly possible now.
