And they will do it from the profit off of running shoes (and a million other products) American bought from them. Those profits went into US Treasury bills so we could prop up our economy and buy more...
....and now they are buying US!
....this should demand a revolt - but against who? They are all guilty.

You can bet our fine leaders like Bush, Paulson, Pelosi & Reid would have no problem with this.
Especially if selling to China was perceived to "Save America From Financial Collapse".
I'll take a collapse over this alternative.
Paulson is too chumy with the Chinese, imo. He needs to be given his walking papers immediately!

Don't look now, wasted, but when any country buys another's debt they own a part of that country, same as when China holds tons of dollars. Those dollars are part of the U.S.
When the U.S. imports from China it trades notes repayable in banks, farms, businesses, you name it.

They already do. What do you think the collateral for past loans is?
