China the new world police?

the small bunch of tin foilers that are in power (surprisingly) and have the ability to subjugate honest Americans to do their bidding.

Since its such a small bunch, could you name them for us?

small bunch relative to the rest of our oversize and wasteful government... jeez you want me to spell out every tongue and cheek for you for every comment I make?

Nothing I would just like to know the select few tin foil hat wearers that are in power.... thats all.

fair enough. a simple google search when you put in Senators + Threaten by China you'll have a few articles about some US official getting their panties all up in a bunch with anti-china this and that. Whether you perceive their concerns as credible or not is still subjective. The point is that these people are the ones making the decisions

they were saying germany didn't have huge inflation problems, unpayable debts leftover from impossibly tough sanctions from a deadly, drawn out world war, that crushed it's economy? WTF are you smoking?

if you want to worry about china, worry about their banking system, IP protection, shady corporate governance, and oppression of personal freedoms. What do you think would happen to their $4 trillion in US bonds if they dropped a bomb on us?

You're failing at history here. WTF do you think happened when Hitler got Germany back on it's feet....much like China is now. All while stepping on it's own citizens to do so. Debt like that is invisible when it comes to war. Germany was printing it's own fucking money for Christ's sake.

you fucking loon. The fact that you even comment about china like that means you havent even set foot there to understand that it isn't a nightmare as you so think

Contrary to the exaggerated reports or conspiracy theories u read up on, China now is like the US its industrial revolution, not every citizen well benefit but the fact that they moved an entire population that equates to the size of the US out of poverty in a little less than 3 decades is nothing more than spectacular. Their freedoms and liberties are continuing to grow while ours continue to shrink (thanks to fear mongering "leaders" like yourself) so before you bitch and worry about another countries policies take a look at ur own and do something about it! because honestly, the citizen's of China doesnt give 2 cents a shit less about us Americans unless you decide to screw their way of life by force.

Who am I to talk to you like this? I'm a proud American born Chinese and I make visits to my poorest relatives (and what you may consider oppressed) in provinces and villages in China (The likes of you have never even heard outside of "Beijing" or "Shanghai") who unlike most Americans, admire to be come like us, rather than envy and wishing our doom.

Welcome to Germany of the 30's...they got their people out of the poorest fucked up mess after WW1 and look what they did.

The vacancy of parallels is astounding with a few of you.

But then again you're clearly biased into thinking they'd never try anything like that yet they support wholeheartedly Communistic countries like N. Korea. Because China is *all* about it's citizens isn't it (heavy sarcasm). While stepping over them as the country moves forward. China wasn't trying to pull it's people out of poverty it was just an effect of mass economic growth that forced people out of poverty.
Even the US has done shit we'd never thought we'd do.

I'm not saying it's going to happen. But anyone who doesn't at least think there's a possibility (even the slightest) is out in left field.

you obviously have your biases and I have mine that's totally fine for people to think that way too, and in principal I agree with you.

Hell, I think my retard racist neighbor has the capacity to do harm to my family which is why I embrace my right to bear arms because as you say "anyone who doesn't at least think there's a possibility (even the slightest) is out in left field".

But you sure as hell don't see me parading down the neighborhood trying to defame him so my other neighbors might go on a witch hunt with me, thus forcefully disturbing his way of life, when he might not even be racist but rather only have a personal issue with me.

I hope you know how to use a firearm. There is more to it than just owning one.

if you live in CA you have to go through a series of training and permit acquisition before a store owner would even want to sell you one in his right mind.
