Did I ever tell you about the time I touched off 2 modern 12 gage shells in a Damascus barreled shot gun and...

... and not only do the products mature with improved sales, capital influx, etc., their country’s understanding of the free enterprise system breaks barriers to support that improvement. Happens time and again, and the countries you point out are examples. There is no finer vehicle for the price than my ‘made in Tokyo’ than I drive. It just took them learning some savvy and a chunk of time to make it turn out that way... but it did.

The Chinese are following the same pattern, and are going to give the US a hell of a ride. Hang on. Due to this first year of Obama, they’ll own us. Another year or two of the same and we’re economically toast, no matter our politics.

Ooops. Forgot myself. Nascar thread.

Hey, how about that Mark Martin!

WOW! Thankfully you survived. How many students were present in your NRA firearms safety class that you lead?

While on vacation last fall, we drove around the outside of the Atlanta track, checking out the RV campgrounds etc. Looking like a venue we may try to go to within a year or two.

Very impressive facility. But nothing compared to Charlotte.

I've been to Atlanta, but not Charlotte, so I can't compare them, but Atlanta is a great track.

OTOH, nothing will rival Talladega at pure racetrackness.

Remember one thing about China. They are still Communist.
They may have relaxed their economy to be more like us, knowing a communist system is unsustainable. Unless they can gather massive wealth by acting like capitalists. When the world economy crashes, they have the military hardware money suitable for conquest.

I know it is difficult. But I avoid buying chinese junk if possible. But what are we making in America anymore that can compete with 3rd world wages?

It’s why I drove a Ford. Same for the wife.

I had Won Ton soup with a side of steamed rice for lunch today. Does that make me a bad boy?

Maybe we were the foremost post-agrarian society during our youth, but now we’ve become the foremost post-industrial society, what do we do for a living? Change sheets? Rotate tires? Write software to compete with the Indians? Sell the last of our secrets to the Chinese (a la Bill Clinton)?

Very soon, you will get a tax break for being a union member, courtesy national socialist health care. So, who’s more communist, the Chinese in their leaning capitalist, or us, leaning communist? Ask the same question next year...

And what will our Tienanmen be like...

You’ll need to eat a bag of Costco pork rinds to atone.

“And what will our Tienanmen be like...”

We will be the man in front of the Chinese tank as they enter Kansas City.
