If you knew what "per capita" ment you would know your post is irrelevant.
Our GDP proves we are a super power and with our military we practically own the world.
You mentioning GDP per capita and ignoring population and size isn't helping your case (whatever your case is)
If you can't even admit the US is a superpower you need to get through high school if you want to be taken seriously in these conversations.

look at GDP, size and population.

and what does GWB have to do with anything?
The world's superpower in military terms?

What happens when China STEALS our patented high-tech/high cost product designs?
What happened when the Chinese military recently hacked Americas computers?

Answer: Nothing because China has a huge army, high tech fighter aircraft, missile defense systems, and nuclear weapons.

Yes we are a superpower compared to Iraq or Afghanistan, but America can't mess with China or Europe. You still think we live in the year 1950.



Or did you say we are the economic superpower?

A economic superpower who buys all their high tech goods from China (and gives China all our money.)
A economic superpower with a 99%-to-GDP national debt.
ex.ex.

In this regard your living in the year 2000 when Bill Clinton was in office.

China has a huge military, high tech fighter aircraft, high tech defense missiles, high tech war ships, biological and chemical weapons, and 100's of nuclear weapons.

Thats why when China steals our patented (high cost) product designs, and hacks into our computers we don't do a damn thing. Yes we bully Iraq over and over, but we can't do that to China.

And its 100% insane to believe America could beat Europe in a war (without 95% of Americans getting killed.)

The Europeans have missile defense systems just like us, fighter aircraft like us, high tech radar, military satellites, attack submarines, biological and chemical weapons, and enough rockets with nuclear warheads to kill everyone in this country.

Thank God our military leaders don't think like you (because if they did we would all be dead.)

Like we would resort to military action over some "hacking" lol.
About Europe,
Please use your oh so perfect off topic debating skills to think of a situation where US and Europe would get into a military conflict. We have military bases IN Europe, wouldn't be so smart to pick a fight with the country who has its own military in your country, oh yea and lets not forget that we are allies

Looks like more fail.
Now please respond by going more off topic to keep me laughing.

Thank you,

When the Chinese military hacked our computers (to steal our technology) don't you think it at least deserved a warning/threat?

When the Chinese steal/copy our patented (high cost) products don't you think it deserves some kind of threat/warning?

I actually saw people in forums wanting to attack them for the above things (but we did nothing because of the reasons I have told you 4 times.)


Perhaps we should agree to disagree?

Chad.

Countries hack each other all the time. Even allies hack each other.
China hacks us, we hack them, Iran hacks us, we hack them.
We even hack Brazil and Germany.

And why would the Chinese want to hack our technology?

So they can copy it and then sell it for 1/3 the cost America sells it for (they do it all the time.)
