So, are you suggesting we just stand around and wait while our progeny is slowly pushed into third-world status? What if, 15 years from now the Chinese figure this out, and they change their policies? They will then become more agressive and start expanding their land base into places like Viet Nam, Cambodia, etc. What will we do then?

THEIR SIGHTS ARE AT LEAST ON AUSTRALIA and the world.

Well placed military and other types have persistently insisted that taking over Australia was not only their right, reasonable and inevitable--it was their duty to their people.
