Na das sagt ja der Richtige...

It'S becoming a habit by America to accuse others over it's own misled policies and failures. It's the fault of the Europeans who do not will to make as much debts as Washington insists they should. It is China'S mistake that America is not competitive and has pushed forward this globalisation thing without repairing its own tax evasion system and massive structural deficits first. At the same time America embraces some methods that some time ago it would have staunchly attacked: demanding global mass-exproprietation in form of global inflation that comes as the price for the policy of cheap money.

How much times have changed. The Chinese are no holy people, but the US is in absolutely no position to lecture others over fiscal policies, it has none-zero-rien-nada-keine authority left to do so - the rest of the global community still pays for the consequences of the last mess America's superior business and fiscal models have created. If you slammed your past three cars into walls and trees all by yourself, you do not threaten others with sanctions over their driving styles.

For once I agree with Skybird, it's their own policy that's to be faulted. The word as said the lack of competitiveness.

It's a sad thing to see the US becoming this. I would not feel this way for the Soviet nor China. From the sound of their elite it seems they are in a semi panic mode. And Obama position as the president of the United States is not exactly an enviable one considering the circumstances and times.

My worry is the nihilists and the anarchist and the disaffected will band together and create riots on the streets propelling an emergency law.

Yeah, right. In America?!?! No way that would ever happ... oh. wait...

September 17th, 2011.

Nevermind.

Over a year remains until the next general elections. Plenty of time for those mentioned, with labor union, and tacit administration support to create the crisis required.

Van Jones begins his efforts this weekend. Ohio is the next target.

You know what I am seeing in Chinese forums?

I keep seeing people talking about how the FBI has "information on corrupt Chinese officials' property in the US, and the kids and mistresses in the US"

A slogan I keep seeing is that "the FBI has the commies by the balls"

And this is why the US has the guts to make a move against China.

Me? I think its a ton a BS
