Now, just suppose that the government of China's grand design is to become the world's premier power, both economically and military, during this 21st century. All China has to do is to keep doing exactly what it has been doing; building its manufacturing industry and growing its economy, both of which will soon eclipse America's; continuing to provide the funding that the U.S. then waste on its empire and wars, and simply watching and waiting as America follows a road leading to catastrophe. The strategies of China's government are designed to take that nation to new heights while America's misguided wars and empire building are taking it to new lows. This is a living nightmare that has no end -- that is, for America.
So, at least for now, China will simply bide its time and wait for America to implode. And it will continue to serve as America's primary source of manufactured products and reap the massive benefits from being the primary exporter to the world's largest market. But there is no question that it will not allow itself to be intimidated by the U.S. military and if it is pushed to its limits then, without a doubt, it will pull the plug on its loans and investments in a heart beat and watch the foundations of America collapse. And it will be there to pick up the pieces at bargain basement prices.
We've all heard it said that one day "You're going to bite off more than you can chew." Well that time is here and now if the U.S. government continues to ratchet up its military operations against these two world powers.
