So you’d give the open door to the Chinese?
There is money for our own. It is not all coming from the Chinese.
Seems there are people on this thread who didn’t get their free cheese. Maybe they should join the anti-Wall Street demonstrators.
Who needs enemies with people like this?
I am not giving the open door to the Chinese, the elected leadership of this country have been making that choice for some time now.
There was a time when China, under its Communist rule, was closed to the rest of the world. They consumed few of the outside world’s resources, they eschewed the ownership of Buicks, and Mandarin was their only language (of the ruling class, anyway).
Now they have chosen to set up an industrial-military state, to forge ahead with technological advances, either by expropriating them from the gullible outsiders, or even through their own ingenuity, to become a capital-intensive banker to the world, and to take on some foreign adventures that creates a hegemony that has come to rival that of America itself, all related to our coming worldwide retreat and by the artificial handicaps we have placed upon ourselves.
China will not so much push for world dominance, as we simply have shrunk and retreated in the face of political correctness. It is being thrust upon them.
