Our vocabulary is now working against us. What Blair calls the “West” is going LGBT and moving in China’s direction economically. It no longer shares the anti-communist, Christian values of the cold war era. So freedom loving Americans would be better off detached from what is still called the “West”.
Baloney!
Besides the fact that China is a nuclear power, any other China dominance is a result of their massive population of 1.4 billion people - 4.2 X times the USA population.
America's Purchase Parity GDP per capita is 3.6 X times higher than China - in spite of the fact that the USA has imported millions of low skill, low education workers for four decades.
Americas industrial output per worker (12.8 million USA workers) is at least 5X times higher than China's output.
The only people in the world who are dazzled by the Chinese are the World Economic Forum and dictators.
That’s why the left likes to change definitions, so they can swim in the confusion.
It is bad enough that these alliances that diminish the USA as the world’s superpower are happening at all, but it is outrageous that our own government’s actions are causing/ allowing them to happen.
The liberal free-market theory of international economics is based on the comparative advantages of nations as the determining factor in where economic activities of various types will flourish.
It turned out that China's comparative advantage was an intelligent, educated, competent, disciplined labor and managerial class.
India has a large population, but their IQs are considerably less, the education is very uneven, and the multiplicity of languages is a problem for social and political cohesion. Plus there is religious conflict, since they have not suppressed religions nor removed caste differences.
Therefore, it is unlikely that India will become competitive with China.
Blair was a lapdog of American Neocons. He did his part by lying Britain into the Iraq War.
China will also make on move on Mongolia before Siberia.
Mongolia is a Russian ally. Many Mongolians speak Russian. But Russia has less incentive to defend Mongolia than Siberia. So it's a softer target for China.
We’ve gone mad. We need to quit standing on our own *****.
We should never have outsourced ........... anything. Pay more, but keep it here. 20/20 hindsight, and all.
China is at the core of coalitions that are rising in substantial part because of the suicide sanctions and corresponding divorce of Russia from Western businesses.
Funny how you don’t bother to compare China’s economic growth rate versus the US.
Bottom line is that China is FAR from topping out, while the West is topped out.
Thanks, interesting article but some was very unclearly written to me... Does this Russia to India pipeline currently exist?
Ross Perot had the free trade canard right, much to the chagrin of Clinton/Gore and the Bush clan.
Are you saying that you made a mistake in just buying foreign products or that you bought into the entire free trade lie?
I don’t want to pop anybody’s balloon but the U.S. military is now on par with the Russian military getting its ass kicked in the Ukraine except that our military is now mostly composed of foreign “refugees” looking for a government paycheck. A friggin’ circus. I saw a five foot, 350 pound female “Sargeant Major” the other day. NOT KIDDING OR EXAGGERATING. Unreal. Not your daddy’s Army anymore, chief.
>>Another way of saying it: Tony Blair said “Hey, look at this mess I helped create.”<<
And yet another way of saying it: “Hey, look at this mess the Bush family and I created...ain’t it grand?”
If anyone can't see what's happening to the military they're blind.
Dream On ...
China has a huge advantage over the US that can never be measured with statistics.
It has a multiplier effect that compounds over time.
The Chinese government and elites support the aspirations of ethnic Chinese.
The US government and elites hate and undermine ethnic white people.
The West did it to themselves, and guys like Blair were a big part of it.
