How many more years will it take, before China takes over the U.S.?

@RedBaron Thank God I won't be around to see it.

@DogMan Then why are you worried?

@RedBaron I'm not worried, but young people should be. They will never fight for this
country.

@BlueVeins I hope you are right, but it will depend on how Gen Z handles things
when they are in charge.

@soar2newhighs belt and road initiative is just one thrust of Chinese commercial/military infiltration.

@zonavar68 I agree but it must be noted some countries involved started to realize yes China “ builds” them many things as part of their belt road initiative,but actually run what they build with minimum local national
Involvement other than at minimal positions. China is very effective. Great book is By Howard French titled “Africa, China’s second continent”. I think that’s why the U.S. military has a Central Command in Africa to off set china’s inserting itself in many African countries.

@soar2newhighs China is a specialist at 'creeping militarisation' to perpetuate it's ideological views of socialist society.

@BohemianBoo China has already exceeded the US economy in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP), a fact acknowledged by many leading economists globally.


The Chinese are at the forefront of technological advancements and are making strides in military capabilities, though the likelihood of military confrontation between the US and China is remote. What currently maintains US superiority is the dominance of the dollar as the global reserve currency, but this status quo is set to change with the introduction of a new BRICS currency utilizing Blockchain technology. Over half of the world's population is already engaging in non-dollar trading. Despite the dollar's resilience, which is currently being fueled by high interest rates, there are signs of investor caution, such as the sudden surge in gold prices.

@Justice4All China also has a massive wealth gap which makes their economy unstable. Also, if China actually did try to take over America, they would have to deal with NATO.
Basically, we're safe from China as long as Biden wins in November.

@DogMan I find that both interesting and doubtful. As elections loom Joe has started doing things for the appearances of doing the “right thing” such as recognizing this now “ threat” .
He’s been
Kissing the ass of Xi, Iran and Russia from oil purchases to touting The Iran nuclear deal ( having trouble getting back in) He has remained quiet on the recent NK display of missile firings.
No, he’s all about himself and his political aspirations
I served in Taiwan and if they are invaded I will 100% support Joe/administration if he stands behind his pledge to defend Taiwan if attacked. Time will tell.

@DogMan Joe’s a day late on that statement! Too many nice cream cones cause brain freeze.

@Futuremirror it’s already happening! Wake up to reality
The US in no longer the number one

@Strictmichael75 Does it means Chinese and Russian are killing American like Zionist killing the Palestinians in their own land? Or how Iraqi, Koreans, Japanese and Afghanistan were killed in their own lands?

Wake up. This number one or number two game, isn't a war and it won't steal your jobs, neither your bread and butter. Our politicians are our worst enemies.

@Futuremirror china’s fleet is getting bigger, they have the biggest dollar reserve in cash, their presence is EVERYWHERE, Russia is busy everywhere too, so get your head out of the sand!
Trump LOVES Kim Jong Un, thinks Putin is the best, wants to be a dictator and even listens to Victor Orban and Erdogen

@Hanginginthere I'm a baby boomer. My dad was a WWII combat infantry soldier.

@orioninthenight Yeah that's what he's saying, the boomers' parents fought valiantly in WW2 against fascism.

@BlueVeins Correct, my dad fought in the mountains of Italy, was wounded twice, and
received many medals. He was always a proud conservative, along with 99% of WWII
veterans.
