Say what you want about China. They are not dumb.

They can see the writing on the wall.

When they stop lending the punchbowl will truly be empty.

I really wouldn't overestimate them. Or anyone else.

Hopefully we still have a few warheads left. We'll need them.

What makes you think China is any different than the rest of the world. They are doing the same thing, printing money.

What are they gong to invest in? What are the ‘real assets’ they will invest in?

Nobody likes the Chinese. They break their word all the time in business.

They will never be the world's reserve currency because no one likes them.

And so where do they go? If they don't sell their cheap sweat shop junk to American and other global markets, they will collapse.

Their dollars can buy commodities but even in that trade they are considered difficult pain in the *ss buyers.

Are they going to buy arms, jets, cruise missiles, Carribean islands? What? And for what?

I would not want to be Chinese. Behind the layers of their onion peel, they are screwed.

It’s not new and has been around for several years. But yes, more people should pay attention. It’s difficult, though, for that fact to get much attention. Fund managers (including banksters) have been flooding us with the propaganda about China’s collapse for over 5 years. China continues to increase production, though at a lesser pace. She has other trading partners for outgoing exports and incoming natural resources. As for the “ghost cities,” China has her own way of building and filling such projects and always has.

China tested its first atom bomb in 1966 and immediately began development of its first thermonuclear weapon, tested in 1967.

This is the money quote:

"Many foreign firms have advanced technology and they are having business difficulties and at the brink of bankruptcy. This is the opportunity that occurs only once in a thousand years," Zheng Xinli, an influential government adviser, was quoted as saying last week by Hong Kong's Wen Wei Po newspaper.

Time to slap huge tariffs on the Communist Chinese. It is the only way to get the Communist Chinese to economically cooperate with America

In fact anyone still support any current policy we have with Communist China is nothing more than a Communist

Governments are notoriously bad at capital allocation.
