Think which country and who’s citizens can stand the most pain. That would be China. The West without current Chinese manufacturing will shut down. The Chinese stop paying and cashing in the US Treasure notes will kill our financial market.

China can go back to a survival mode, can the West?

China is already in a slowdown that cannot likely be reversed. They have an aging population due to the one child law. Unlike America China got old before they got rich. They invested a huge amount of their wealth building ghost cities that are sitting empty and deteriorating. There is no country in the world that can go head to head with the US on a level field.

If the Chinese divest themselves of the $1.2 trillion or so of US treasuries where will they invest? $1.2 trillion is a drop in the bucket of our debt.

Manufacturers are fleeing china right now to return to the US and places like viet nam. So now we will buy from viet nam. It will not destroy the US. We have 70% personal consumption in this country.
