    Anything to add ... other than the usual "But, but ... Biden".
    Yes we are and putting Biden into the White House guarantees that Xi prevails, can't be any clearer Jack. Can I also remind you that I started this thread, in case you've forgotten!!

    "but but but"- Beijing Biden indeed
    The only check on China is a 'Fight Fire with Fire' approach using a 'Mercantilist' strategy and adopting 'National Champions' like our Tech Companies to compete and overtake China in the Field of Artificial Intelligence and 5G.

    I don't see Blue Team/Red Team moving in this direction.

    Jack: That's the fundamental disagreement that me and you have. I (Jack) support 'Central Planning', a National Priority to keep 'America First' and preserve 'Western Values' like 'Free Expression' and 'Personal Liberty'. You, on the other hand, support something like 'Throw the Cards in the Air and see How they Land'. You seem unaware how IMPORTANT the concept of 'Free Expression' and 'Personal Liberty' are. You are willing to throw all that away and live in another 'Dark Age' for a thousand years because I suspect, in your brain, you think 'I'll be with Jesus in Heaven, so who cares'.

    Jack; That's true. They are an 'Ethno-State' and they are 'Authoritarian'. Things like 'Free Expression' and 'Individual Liberty' are frowned upon (see Hong Kong for example).

    Mott: "China though has to be careful in playing that game with the US cause in a quid pro quo situation they will lose as their weaknesses are far greater and far more obvious than ours. Like having nearly 500 million people still living in abject poverty."
    Jack: I disagree. China is on the Ascendancy of Power. China has a 'Central Planning' culture in Government and is using it to full advantage. They are using 'Mercantilism', a form of Commerce that supports 'Nationalism' and the 'State'. It's a perfect example of their 'China First' policy. Their Central Planning DOESN'T include people that mutter "But, but ... that's Communism" or "But, but ... that's Capitalism". They are focused on a 'China First' policy that is nimble enough to do whatever is in the best interests of China.

    At this point in time, I doubt the US could ever build a 'Panama Canal' or a 'Hoover Dam'. People like to say "America First", but they don't understand what that may entail. Do people here even understand the term 'National Champions', a term used in countries around the world.

    --->"National champions
    National champions are corporations which are technically private businesses but due to governmental policy are ceded a dominant position in a national economy. In this system, these large organizations are expected not only to seek profit but also to "advance the interests of the nation"; the government sets policies which favor these organizations.Wikipedia"<---
    Meh...I wouldn’t underestimate America or the American people. Our problems, compared to China’s internal problems, are window dressing. Look at what’s happened to their economy since they’ve exceeded global demand and their government can no longer prop it up. Certainly their authoritarian government has certain advantages but they are mistaken about US institutions being our weakness when they are truly our great strength.

    I wonder if the reason the establishment is so obsessed with China is because they're trying to divert attention away from (((another nation))) that is a much bigger threat.
