Since we allowed Mao to be victorious on the mainland, China has not been our friend in any shape or form. They are our ideological opposite and their form of government and their regional and global ambitions are the anti-thesis of our own.
We are literally dancing with the devil in our current economic and trade relations with them and, IMHO if we do not change our posture quickly as regards them, it will lead to DISASTER.
