Newbie: You have NO IDEA how far off the mark your assumption is.
The unsupported jump leads me to believe you'll be just as wrong headed on many other points too.
One can't argue with this. America in all its "free capitalism" has crapped the bed a few times economically. It happens to the best countries, it happens to the worst countries.
Is America poised to take advantage of this Chinese downturn? Not so sure. Looks like we're about to crap the bed again ourselves at around the same time.
I suggest to keep an eye on India, they might jump on this opportunity.
Btw, strange then that poster Sam Sung arrived only recently. Is it far-fetched to think it might be a bot? I think he might like that song.
Biden has zero background or knowledge of economics, as almost all politicians are in this country; he's a lawyer.
You didn't notice that I wrote "basic" economics. I was trying to give that poster a chance to advance his economics knowledge way up to kindergarten level.

Oh noooooo! I'm a wicked, Chinese, commie SPY and part of an Devilish communist conspiracy to destroy God's chosen Country .... the Saintly, Almighty United States of America.
I will now reform. Here's the proof ....PRAISE BE TO THE GLORIOUS DONALD TRUMP.

Oh, my miss.
Just how does China intend to replace the greenback as the planet's premier fiat currency?.
Do you think our country will passively allow our standard of living to plummet, while China cleans up?.
Throughout history, these disputes have generally been settled by wars.
Does it annoy US capitalists that China (a COMMUNIST nation) is on the verge of becoming the world's biggest & most powerful CAPITALIST nation?
It would take a miracle for China to eclipse the economy of the USA in a few more years.
Our GDP is 3 times that of China proportionate to population. They have a population nearly 6 times larger than ours, with a GDP that is roughly equal.
So.. no.... why would it make US capitalists any more anxious about the Chinese economy, when there are many Western countries that have a higher rating than we do on the Global Economic Freedom Index.
But it is a good thing you admit the Chinese liberalized their economy in order to become more competitive with the free market world. Even though they're still an authoritarian one-party regime.
