We haven’t really mentioned it once, I did think it was possible u were pro China especially since Xi is an extreme authoritarian. Not since Mao has a Chinese leader had the power that man yields and he is intent on making the the world heavyweight champ. His China first or whatever he calls it is supposed to make China fully self sufficient in providing goods to its country before 2030. Airplanes, cars, trains everything they use will be made in China yet still they bitch about out tariffs as they plan. Xi was touting this plan, I think he has backed off, at least in public about this plan. I hear a lot of negative talk about the Chinese economy from the economists. You ever read about the Chinese Zombies or about the multi billion dollar cities built to expand the country but now these cities, gleaming and modern with skyscrapers and mass transit lay empty.
Anyway miles I didn’t figure you would like the human rights record of China. They will dislocate by force a million people to make room for the olympics. Grabbed people up said get the fuck out. Those people had no money in Beijing let alone traveling trying to find new homes. It’s estimated China’s unemployed people equals or surpasses the US population. China’s economy could be a paper tiger, time will tell. Xi and his people are clever bastards. They are all over Africa and the Middle East, getting all those governments to take an anti US stance and agreeing to dump the dollar and move to the yen. They don’t announce how many executions they do a year or release numbers on incarcerated people but amnesty international the pinko commie group, has said its horrific. China is a beautiful country but they support #americangenocide
