    Great, more incompetent MAGA wars. While we’re blowing all our money on that, China has health care, built a high speed tail system, and eliminated poverty.

        Not as long as the world uses the dollar to trade.

        Other countries can stop enabling the USA, and side with China or Russia’s financial systems, or make their own.

        Every country that stops uses the dollar to trade would be one less tentacle for the beast.

      China still also likes to do murdery things, polluty things and many others.

      I’m not buying China as some sort of magic wonderland.

      In fact this tends to stink of that Chinese propaganda that all the kids are into.

        Well, that describes America, too, but I wasn’t holding up China as a paradise, just as an example of proper economic policy. While Russia and America are the hillbilly superpowers feuding with everybody around them, China is already heading for the 22nd century.
