I lived in China for 5 years and I will tell you it is a complete mess there. They have a billion people living in poverty and are a few missed meals away from some societal collapse. I could go on all day about the problems I saw there and how they are actually much worse than what the west is facing. It doesn't mean they aren't a threat, but they will never have the soft or hard power that the US has/had.
Thanks for the response. It just seems they own so much of the world including in our own country. I guess they spend everything on missions abroad as they unravel.
yes exactly - spent alot of time in HK and ventured into China once - couldn't wait to leave - awful place - and yes - a mess - lots of real real poverty - and lots of real hard core communist repression and oppressions and that's just what you can see walking down the street - big slogans on bill boards - "Working for the good of all People" BS BS BS BS - awful.
