They have our money and they are still bankrupt?

We need to print more...

Time to have a year of jubilee and zero out the debts I guess.

So, if the PRC is a bubble and goes ‘pop’ how much of the world do they take down with them?

China is up against the ropes. Sounds like a good time to redouble my efforts to not purchase anything made in China

Gave up trying to explain to people that 10-15% endless growth was not real.

Then move in for the kill by blocking their cheap, slave-labor goods from our country.

Perhaps, but no one is going to push their system over the edge. They are not subject to bond markets, George Soros, speculators or protestors.

[DannyTN]

yeah, yeah, yeah. I've been hearing that China is going to collapse for many years now.

The fact is the banks are owned by the Chinese government and all they have to do is print more yuan. They aren't going to fail.

Meanwhile, they continue to buy U.S. companies, and disassemble them and move them to China.

This is just more disinformation designed to lure China's trading partners into not doing anything about their unfair trade policies.

this is rich!

their mayors have been cookie-cutter building housing that they can ill afford.

the last i read, some 64,000,000 excess housing units were available, but unoccupied.

Hi Kaslin. The financial illiteracy demonstrated in these comments is something to behold.

[O6ret]

The Chinese “economy” is built on the backs of their people who earn slave labor wages. As the world slows down and the US and European economies struggle who’s left to buy? The Third World?

Chinese GDP must be feeling the pinch...but you’ll never hear it from them.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

When the Yuan is overvalued 2 to 1, that means a 50% loss on every dollar of revenue, only partly made up by slave wages.

[Lorianne]

Geez, I better head over to the Dollar store and buy more useless Chinese cr@p.

[sauropod]

So, what’s gonna happen when they call in their loans? /rhetorical question

I had a friend who went back to China to start a software company. He had been born in Beijing.

He came back to the US astounded at the level of corruption and how many cadres had their palms out to prospective businesses. I've also heard that the bad debt banks in China are hiding makes our toxic mortgages look like petty cash.

[DeaconRed]

China needs my first wife as their finance manager.
Honey we can't be broke we have plenty of checks in the check book.
Come to think about it, I think her brother is running ours. . . . .

Anti-American traitors: gushing propaganda about the collapse of the Chinese economy since 2007 after sending US manufacturing to China and other Asian countries for over three decades.
