I am getting so sick and tired of our good trading partners trying to step on our toes, every chance they get. China is Lucy to us as Charlie Brown with the football. I think we should start to play the game the same way that they do. Taiwan needs a good military buildup, doesn't it? A reactor too! For peaceful purposes like Iran, of course. Maybe some of new Europe should have high end nukes?
I blame the quality of leaders we keep electing, spineless at home, and doubly spineless abroad. They are more likely to get tough with our citizens then our enemies. Crazy times!
