Grow a brain before you start typing. I was questioning why you jumped to civil war from the previous poster's mention of war. The thesis that China could absorb horrendous loses of men in a foreign war and actually improve the demographic makeup of their society has been discussed several times on FreeRepublic.
Typical response from a boob that probably has no real understanding of Chinese culture or way of thinking
In either case be it war or civil war, the Chinese are not going to put themselves in that situation in order to incur a depletion in their population. Just because it has been discussed here on FR before doesnt mean that makes any more sense. There are far too many other consequences to consider.
