My name is Winston Smith. I work at the Ministry of Truth...
In all fairness to the Reuters news agency, they may simply have felt that Mr. Luo’s statement would be misunderstood if taken out of context. I really don’t believe that Mr. Luo meant that the Chinese people are filled with a burning hatred of everything American, or a passion to destroy us. Saying “We hate you guys” is obviously a humerous/rhetorical means of expressing the fact that, while they certainly don’t like the Fed for pursuing a policy which is sure to (eventually) devalue our currency, there isn’t anything they can do about it.
It’s not at all comparable to Kruschchev’s “We will bury you!”

********Mr Luo, whose English tends toward the colloquial, added: “We hate you guys. Once you start issuing $1 trillion-$2 trillion [$1,000bn-$2,000bn] . . .we know the dollar is going to depreciate, so we hate you guys but there is nothing much we can do.”***********
One thing is certain this man knows more about the American dollar than Obama and his cooperative thieves in the Congress.
There’s probably something left unsaid here too... “and as soon as we find a better use for your stinkin’ dollars we’ll stop buying your overpriced Treasuries.”
More like the house organ of Eurosocialism at work.
