The Americans wouldn't have to be worried about the military strength of China currently would they? they're rearming themselves with old soviet technology... back in the days of the Korean war China struggled with the UN and USA's forces and plus the north koreanshelp they both lost over 2 million in battle but America lost under 100,000 men and south koreans lost around 1,000,000. America needs to worry bout that long term deficit tho, China's and japans surplus causes everyone else to have deficits and USA is only paying' enough to pay off its interest... so they need to keep an eye China's economy..... in the future....
