They use slave labor. And they run troll farms where the woke members accuse the US of being racist because of slavery hundreds of years ago. They have bought and paid for too many of our leaders like Slow Joe and China Boy Swallwell. Time to root out those maggots and put them in prison.

Uh, no. They have over four times out population. They are bigger than us, is all. Their per capita GDP is minuscule.

Even in terms of what they have accomplished, it has been due to intellectual theft, currency pegging, and dumping of goods made by using its own population as slave labor.

I am doubtful this is even going to happen. There is always an excuse as to why it doesn't. It was originally supposed to happen in 2008, then 2016, now 2028? Seven years is a long time to come up with new excuses.

In the long run, by the way, China is finished. Its great advantage of population is disappearing with the demographic disaster of the effects of the one-child policy. By current trends, by 2100, China will have half the population it has now, whereas America, due to immigration, will have 450 million or so people. The great advantage of better than 4 to 1 numbers will be less about 2 to 1.

America will keep getting stronger as China implodes.

I don't know where you live but around here people are out walking all the time, most people I know are NOT obese, and are health conscious. We eat right and exercise in my house. I know the majority of Americans are overweight, but don't put every one of them in that category!

And perhaps some of the blame needs to go to Food, Inc. They created addictive fructose, added it to everything they could and manufacture fake cheap processed food. People are now addicted to it which is exactly what Food, Inc. wanted. They should take at least SOME blame.

The statistics of US obesity nationwide says otherwise. its not confined to your area. The vast majority of the US is composed lazy obese food addicted civilians that physically inactive and that is just the reality of the situation.

Yes chemically laden food can be addictive for sure but adults should posses the willpower to overcome it. And ummm.. China is americanized too. LOL

They have bought and paid for your boy Trump, he is the one who received exclusive business concessions for himself and his family, he is the one with a China Income that he pays taxes on he is the one with the secret China Bank account. Your so worried about Biden because as a former Senator he and the rest of the Senate supported expanding Business Relations with China...

Well look what scoundrel has been taking advantage of it...

Biden didn't "expand" biz with the Chicoms because prior to 1999, it was illegal for U.S. businesses to trade with the brutal Commie regime, that just a 4 decades prior, killed 55,000,000 of its own people.

Biden literally swung the doors to the USA wide open to Communist China in 1999-2000. Until Biden, it was illegal for companies to do biz with the murderous Chicoms. To say Biden "expanded" trade w/ them is a gross understatement.

Nothing Trump has done can come close to comparing to the damage Biden has done to the U.S. economy.

The Chicoms STEAL ~$500,000,000 a year from us in stolen intellectual property alone.

https://law.stanford.edu/2018/04/10/...g-american-ip/

The Chicom regime keeps 1M of its own people in concentration camps, and harvests their organs at will, and aborts their babies to carry out genocide against the Muslim Chinese Uighurs. I though racism & discrimination was bad?

The Chicoms knowlingly sent Covid-19 to us, then hid what they knew about it, and wouldn't allow 3M to ship N-95 masks made in China, back to the USA. They withheld meds and medical equipment from us too.

Minimizing what Biden has done to us, is un-American. Mr. MaGoo is a 1 man wrecking ball to the U.S. economy, health, and future.

FWIW, many Americans also work 6 days a week, including myself. Some even work 7 days a week. Perhaps the main difference is, it's a matter of choice for Americans. While nobody is holding as gun to a Chinese workers head and saying they have to work 6 days a week, at many companies, it is expected of workers, and they don't dare back out of it. A lot of them wouldn't want to, because they legitimately need the money for their families.





According to this poster, Trump is a dictator, which would also make America a dictatorship.
Some people should get a dictionary and read up on history in regards to those trigger words "dictatorship, fascist, Nazi, etc"

There is an amazing work ethic with China and Japan (not suprised China surpassing US)...back in college a number of my fellow Americans were partying and dropping out while most international students were in the library every Friday and Saturday night studying hard...many are Doctors/high level professionals now. Obesity is much worse in America compared to Asia too...I very rarely saw any fat people in Japan back in the day when I taught English there.

China waged biological warfare on the world with their Wuhan virus. Why isn't Peking Joe talking about retaliation? It should be WW III.
tell me more about this "biological warfare" from China when it there's been no evidence of it:
1. being manufactured in a lab
2. originating in Wuhan/China.

please, enlighten me.
