China needs us and we need China. Neither can afford
a stand off at this time, but yet the game must go on.

Demographic 'changes' in the US will eventually lead to the ascendence
of Chinese supremacy. They have the patience to wait while their
technological and manufacturing prowess perfects itself and watch
while the US implodes in problems of its own making Ala California.
Yep, China needs the US... for now.

We will see how much China 'needs' us when they try to kick us out of the
Tiawanese straits as they occupy that country...

China is making all this noise in order to keep things from coming
apart in China.

If anyone really looked, China has a greater poverty problem than
they did when Mao took over. There are something like 250 million
illegal migrant workers wandering around China working day labor jobs.
They are illegal because in China you cannot leave your village with out
government permission. In the really rural areas the only people who can
leave are volunteers for the Army ( Which is cutting its manpower, because
even China realizes that technology as made quality more important
than quanity). The illegal day laborers who just walk away from the rural
villages can get neither schooling for their children, hospitals for the sick
and injured or housing. It is not uncommon for the day laborers on
construction to live in the very buildings they are constructing.
This year, 66-75% of the recent college graduates can't find jobs, Labor
Strikes, (Yes I said strikes) have severely impacted their oil. gas and coal
industries in the delivering of energy.

Farmers in the villages are living on the edge of starvation because
China (as Part of WTO ) can buy rice cheaper from the Mississippi
Delta and California than they can raise it themselves. Remember SARS??
This was caused by the small farmers trying to maximize their income
by raising chickens, ducks and pigs on to small of plots where diseases
can be passed from birds to pigs and then on to humans. ( How do you
explain all the various flu strains (which are basically avian diseases) come
from china.

There is a lot of pressure for the development of a multi party government
as a lot of people in the rural areas the more economic developed south
are finding that the communist party does not represent their interests any
more.
The communist party is holding on to power by a thread, ( A heavily armed
thread but a thread just the same) The only organization the communists
can rely on is the army. They have lost control of the banking and the labor
markets. With the integration of their banking system with the world financial
systems It is doubtful that they could even seize the banks any more. Right
now some of the provincial governors are telling the big bosses in Beijing to
pound sand and are getting away with it.

Some knowledgeable people are saying China will probably implode in the
next 20 years.
