35 trillion dollar debt, 30% of tax revenue going to interest on debt.War with China who is the largest nation state holder of US debt TBills? The whole thing is just so ridiculous.The war could only last a week or two tops, probably end in nuclear exchange.Everyone loses.
Not to mention they can end our manufacturing supply chain instantly.
Unless bidet/Kambama end it first
They cut off medications, you're going to see MILLIONS of people go into withdrawal or die. Can't believe how bad this globalism is.
Looks like North Korea had it right, but failed at it.
Self-sufficiency is the key. No more globalism bullshit that has put us at so much risk.
But nevertrump told me nationalism is raaaaacist!
I had a read a book on the state of our pharmaceuticals... I don't remember much, but we are not even allowed to make aspirin in this country. Because of some stupid treaty/agreement. Asprin!!!
Whoa, that’s crazy. If you remember the name of the book can you post it please?
They could, but then all those dollars would stop flowing to them and their economy would suffer pretty quickly. It's a two way street...
While we make more and more in the US each year, there are still a lot of critical items made in China. With that being said, we as a manufacturing base can step up to meet the needs for most items. We don't do it today because we can't be competitive, but we have the technology.
We don't have the supply chains required, and you can't just retool factories at a whim for everything.
For example, take medicine and tech: China already manufactures the vast majority of the world's antibiotics, which is itself a major security risk that has been pointed out for years to no avail.
If China takes Taiwan, fabrication of complex technology drops to very low levels for us -- and fabs are complex and cost many, many fiatbux to build not to mention time as seen with Intel's AZ plants.
Warring just isn't feasible for us as we've been crippled from within.
Of course, all of that would have been avoided if we had elected officials who were focused on making this country great instead of weakening it for decades.
I could be wrong but I heard somewhere that Taiwan will destroy itself before China takes over.
I do not disagree with you.
We have a lot of skill in this country and like I said, we can make most items, but we are screwed for a lot of very critical items.
And end the population with a large bad batch of fentanyl…. Instantly
China can’t withstand a war. They don’t have war infrastructure that we’ve developed for a century.
Plus, we have 35 trillion in debt, but surprisingly, we are the most equipped superpower financially. China has been hyperfinancing their entire economy and country for 35 years. All of Asia has but none as bad as China.
The real issue with a war is that we won’t be fighting just China, we will be fighting N Korea, Russia, Iran, probably Turkey, and all of the invaders.
The “dollar” is now jut a concept.
I believe given the shit most guys 30-45 years old have been dealing with, most will fight to burn the system to the ground.
No more brother wars.
Total civil service reset.
Hopefully we won't be used to bomb Gaza some more.
Starting a proxy war with a nuclear power.
It’s as if, Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan didn’t happen.
