Red China? Isn't this an old moniker. China has been communist since the 40s. And many will say its more capitalist than communist right now and run by a dictatorial Communist Party of China.

"Red China" is perfectly appropriate. Capitalism isn't Capitalism when its at the end of a gun barrel. The Chinese have no human rights and no quality of life. Unlike the last "Red" threat however, they aren't trying to go to war with us-they're simply trying to buy us out. It's good to remind all Americans that they are in fact the enemy and must be contained.
