This is the result of our insane Globalization Policy which has burden the United States with massive trade imbalances and allowed the de-industrialization of our economy. You want to see our future look to the United Kingdom. We sold our future to save few cents at Wal-Mart.
Good article, but possibly looking at just one angle. Chinese aggression stems from the fact that it has a communist setup disguised as a corporate management system. Neither can be believed.
Tibet remains one early venue where huge Chinese 'investments' flowed, and the cultural fabric of the nation changed forever.
It is difficult for other nations to match such adventurism, but one hopes that countries that agree to Chinese terms do keep in mind their cultural/historic uniqueness. Economic surrender to China does not just result in foreclosure in the books, but a bankruptcy of soul and cultural independence.
World War III will be fought by, for and because of the Banks.
