Hmm, I see. Thanks. I find it interesting, in a morbid sort of way, that China built its own self-destruct machine (the dam) that could end up killing millions of Chinese people and put an end to the CCP.
I read somewhere last year (don't ask, I cannot remember where I read this) that Taiwan has built something like 1,000 special-use missiles that could be launched if China invaded Taiwan, and those missiles were designed for one thing, to strike the Three Gorges Dam and other fragile dams, causing instant humanitarian crises all across China.
I guess we'll see, if China decides to attack Taiwan. We live in interesting times!
I believe that about Taiwan and the 3GD. Great point!!! Xi talks a big game about Taiwan but... that leverage is a game changer. It isn’t talked about much. It’s like the big elephant in the room and I firmly believe any day we could wake up and find 3GD is gone and that impacts everyone no matter where you live.
Yes, with a 3GD collapse, the world would instantly lose about 15% of its manufacturing capacity, and the supply chain would be stressed, probably beyond its ability to adjust for. It would take years, maybe decades, to redirect manufacturing capabilities to other countries and establish transportation and supply chains. Our whole world could change in about 1 hour, and we wouldn't know it until our useless "media" informed the world.
To me it's ironic that it was an old CHINESE curse, "May you live in interesting times" that now comes to mind. We are indeed living in interesting times.
I believe they (Taiwan) are not the only ones with missiles pointing at that dam. Although I do believe it would be a break glass incase of fire situation to launch them. As far as supply chain recovery, I look at what Trump did with ventilators. The TRUE BLOODED Americans will come to bat and save not only ourselves, but the entire world. I may be too optimistic, but that's how I roll. I am a NEVER DOOMER as opposed to a never Trumper.
