Can't blame them

China is near being the new superpower of the world. There is a fear growing in the minds of some Americans of this reality that is causing the Chinese to be as feared as the Muslims are now. Only, rather than being feared of being terrorized and killed, they are fearful of losing their jobs, etc. I don't understand why China can't have a say in the market, yet are able to sell phones? What about other foreign companies like Sony, Nissan, Toyota, Mitsubishi, BMW, Sony Ericsson, Mercedes, Volkswagon, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless...they all have international ties, and many don't share the same government policies as we do. Other than some fear of being number 2, what is wrong with the situtation?

That's a story moms tell their kids to scare them at night. Contrary to what everyone else is telling you, China's entire economy is tied to ours. China's fighting rampant inflation. They sell $1.5 trillion dollars of crap in the US a year. If we go down in flames, so do they. Stop passing around 'urban myth' stories. You'll scare the plebes.

It's all a shell game anyway. The money is worthless. All of it. It is simply in everyone's best interest to pretend that it has value because the alternative would be a depression even worse than the one we're experiencing.

I don't know if 'depression' would even apply. It'd be a meltdown like no one's ever experienced.

it's called a symbiotic relationship. just because their economy is tied to ours, doesn't mean we owe them any less money. i'm not passing myths, you're just only telling one side of the story.

All that money is worthless. We just assign value to it. China couldn't and wouldn't ever call in that debt...if they do, they're screwed.

No, you just said what every other elementary school educated kid says: The Chinese own all our debt! We're doomed!

I thought that it was a valid opinion. Were you hoping for a fierce debate?
