China is doing very well.
We need to stop talking cr@p about them, and get serious about them.
Now.
RE: China is doing very well.
Can you elaborate?
Have you no idea?
China is kicking our butts.
RE: China is kicking our butts.
In which area?
Mark
You are serious?
Tell me you are not seriouss
China has been building EVERYTHING sold in America for 10 years, and almost everything sold in America for twenty years.
Look at the country, it has been developing in every single way.
You are 20 years behind on China, if you really believe what you are writing.
We are getting our b@tts whipped by china, every single year, for more than thirty years.
Completely!
One of the multiple reasons that a war with Taiwan is unlikely. China knows that such a war would be catostrophic for its export based economy, would result in significant economic contraction, and cause severe internal political instability.
All of your points on Taiwan are valid, but on the other side of scale is this:
It may be now or never.
China cannot count on the US having a senile dolt as President as a long term strategy.
Marxism hasn’t worked yet.
Bkmk
where is that tiny violin gif?
Sad if true. I wonder about those without water in the rural areas...can they dig wells for water? Maybe would have to dig too deep to hit water or some other issue; the article didn’t say or I overlooked it.
A couple of months back I watched several documentaries on China and the development that’s taken place in the past 25 years. As someone has already commented, China has been building, building, building for years now. It has massive modern cities now, more than in the US. And China also has become the international headquarters for computer hardware manufacturing along with other industries. President Trump tried to even the playing field, but the globalists succeeded in putting a stop to his efforts.
RE: China has been building, building, building for years now.
Yes, and how many of these mega projects are actually profitable? How are they financing it and are they economically viable? How much does it cost to maintain them? How much debt did they incur to build the project?
Beware with the build, build, build strategy of trying to boost the economy and trying to emulate China .... anyone can build anything, it’s the viability of the project that will count in the end.
RE: Marxism hasn’t worked yet.
China has abandoned Marxism since the time of Deng Xiao Ping. Today, it is more like STATE CONTROLLED CAPITALISM.
RE: You are 20 years behind on China, if you really believe what you are writing.
I am fully aware of what China is doing. I have been there many times and can speak the language and can even read and write some.
Look BEYOND the veneer of their externals. Read my Post #14.
Besides stealing or imitating USA technology, what have they done?
They manufacture more than the USA, but, in US Dollar output, one USA industrial worker produces FOUR times as much value as one Chinese worker.
From memory, Chinese industrial out put is about 10% higher than the USA.
However, the USA has roughly 15 million industrial workers, and the Chinese have at least 75 million industrial workers.
China can have a billion people living in dire poverty and the other 400 million dwarfing and out-performing our middle- and upper- classes at the same time.
Not for long.
When I said build, I mostly meant the huge cities and skyscrapers that now adorn parts of China. The influx of citizens from rural to these mega cities. The many corporations now manufacturing in China. In fact, here is a long list I found after a brief search of American companies manufacturing in China (not exporting to China). Their post reads:
This is a list of companies who either own factories, or have contract factories producing their products
in China. Some of the companies produce 100% of their products there, and others only produce parts,
or certain ingredients for their products.
