Most of the Anti-China rhetoric in this country is fueled by pride not by facts.

Sure there are things that China is doing that are better for them than for us, but we're the same way. We've hurt plenty of people along the way to maintain our status.

It's hard to let go of being the undisputed number 1 country around, but it's happening like it or not. The world we live in will not be under our thumb, and if we continue to let pride push us into another rivalry with a super power it's only going to hurt us.

I believe there is a path forward that is equally beneficial in the long run for both the average Chinese person and the average American person. We just have to be willing to set our pride aside and deal with the situation realistically not idealistically.

I'm probably more than kind of stupid, but I do what I can with what I have.

I'm definitely not making our country a better place, but I'm trying real hard to stay out of the way of people who can.

in most ways China is our friend. And we have been very good to them over the years. BUT we need a new plan to compete globally, and the need for that plan is in large part due to China cheating. That doesn't make them our enemy for sure. But it does mean we need to reevaluate our rules.

America has not been good to anyone over the years. America is calculating and amoral and acts only in self-interest, or the interests of the elite. The main reason why America has done poorly is because the average American can't compete globally once you strip away America's cheating (robbing the poor, colonizing brown people, monopolies).

American elites aren't chumps though and have more capital in their hands than their counterparts anywhere, mostly because they rape the poor not only in America but in their overseas dependencies and puppet/vassal states.

HAHAHAHA Ok buddy. Save it for your asian buddies. The American worker has been THE standard for the last hundred years. The ONLY reason the chinese have taken any American jobs is currency manipulation.

I dont' say that out of any feeling of malice or anything. I am totally glad that the average Chinese life is better now than a decade ago and getting better.

But facts are facts. America for the last eighty years has passed regulation countering corporate greed in the name of the consumer and worker rights. We are now in a marketplace and competing directly with countries that not only don't do that but freely manipulate their own currency and laws to take jobs from the west.

Not only does America need to take a hard look at job competition, but the world should be taking a harder look at labor rights and currency manipulation as competitive advantage.

Ultimately America was stupid because we opened "free trade" and should not have before we had a better plan. But our super rich guys needed to be super richerer so there you go.

Pretending any of this was due to Chinese superiority or fair competition is nuts.

PS. you should ask some people from your motherland how things were in the thirties and whether they think america has been good to them.

I know it's pretty popular to rail against corporations right now, and there are definitely some issues the U.S. needs to address, but to act as though what GC said isn't accurate is just stupid.

Eventually China will have the largest consumer market in the world and it is best to be on their good side when that time comes.

The US has let China manipulate our currency based on the idea that it is good for the consumer and the capital markets. The capital markets mostly need help because of Federal debt. The time has come for the US to re-evaluate this position and work with China to ensure that US exports to China increase and the trade imbalance decreases.

So far the relationship has been a net gain but prolonged underemployment in the US is eroding those gains and if this continues everyone will lose.

China's focus has been strengthening their trade with the EU [now their largest trading partner] as well as those countries in near physical proximity to them - Japan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore, etc.

No, Americans have been stupid for centuries (excluding the imports). The difference is that everyone else was bombed to ashes in WW2. "The Chinese" didn't take your jobs, machines did. The Chinese took those jobs from the machines.

America is the worst currency manipulator. They force people to deal in dollars (with a gun to oil producer heads) and then mass print to earn from seigniorage

America's competitiveness(ignoring the robots and machines for now) is hampered by poor education and infrastructure. Not easy to solve overnight.

The super rich will always find a way to manipulate dumb bible-thumpers into backing policies that favor them. There is more involved than just "free trade".


GC posted:

If its so easy to do what China does, why is it that only East Asia has been capable of developing with no natural resources? It's because no one else is willing to work 12-14 hours a day and spend almost nothing. It's never going to be "fair competition" when Americans simply do not have the work ethic to compete, all other things equal.

China makes almost nothing in terms of profit from trade with the US. But they get intellectual property, some decent managers (sometimes) and a tiny amount of political clout in the US. China doesn't need the US, the US needs China (and Japan, and oil producing nations).

He actually tried to cut the population down. If China had just exterminated all their minorities instead of marrying them their population would be like 200-300 million today.

Mao remains a controversial figure to this day, with a contentious legacy that is subject to continuing revision and fierce debate. Nationwide political campaigns led by Mao, such as the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, are often considered catastrophic failures. Although Mao encouraged population growth and China's population almost doubled during the period of his leadership[6] (from around 550 to over 900 million),[3][4] his rule from 1949 to 1976 is believed to have caused the deaths of 40 to 70 million people.[7][8]
