Never Trust Communist China

2014-06-11 20:51:50 · answer #2 · answered by Hello 1 · 0 0

The only thing that remains of "Communist" China is its Totalitarian control of its citizens/workers. This is precisely why Corporate America pressured the Bushs and Clintons to agree to give "Normal Trading Relations" to China in 1999 and entry into the W.T.O. in November, 2001. Thus began the exodous of millions of U.S. manufacturing jobs to China, an expanded China economy and a growing trade deficit for the U.S. with China. The U.S. debt grew with the invasion and occupation of Iraq and China was the major source of credit. Now China has power over the U.S.
Two senior spokesmen for the Chinese government observed that China’s considerable holdings of US dollars and Treasury bonds “contributes a great deal to maintaining the position of the dollar as a reserve currency.”

Should the US proceed with sanctions intended to cause the Chinese currency to appreciate, “the Chinese central bank will be forced to sell dollars, which might lead to a mass depreciation of the dollar.”

If Western financial markets are sufficiently intelligent to comprehend the message, US interest rates will rise regardless of any further action by China. At this point, China does not need to sell a single bond. In an instant, China has made it clear that US interest rates depend on China, not on the Federal Reserve.

In what context do you mean? Do I trust their products to be safe, or do I trust that they won't use nuclear weapons, or what? I do not believe they are going to attack anyone with nukes or other weapons, because the world is their market, especially the United States. But many of their products are sub-standard and do not last. Here's something to think about: I do not believe Communist China is a serious threat to the world, but the U.S. government IS.

How trite, no facts to back up any of your claims, just pretty much hate, propaganda, and supposition with little common sense and relying on old news and outdated assumptions to support your claims. Making most all your points moot.

Fact:
China has stated that they will not attack any sovereign nation.

Fact:
China does not invade and occupy other countries

Fact:
Tibet has a historical link to China and it was wanted back by emperors to finally Mao in 1950. Since then the Tibet people have more say in its countries internal affairs then anytime in its history. Before it was pretty much a monarchy type dictatorship. That the story about China choosing the living Buddha for them was taken out of context and smeared across the news in the states, when in fact it is the Tibet people who choose, the only approval comes from the government to make sure that the chosen living Buddhas are not internal trouble makers. Further, China recently completed passenger rail service to Tibet and is encouraging the world and the China people to visit.

Fact:
Taiwan was a province prior to Mao taking over and China wants it back under the one country, two government concept, exactly like Hong Kong.

Fact:
China has little military experience. The last time China invaded another country was post our involvement in Vietnam in the late 70's when they were giving China a lot of trouble on their southern border and China finally, after repeated warnings got fed up, invaded and left a month later with a firm warning that if they didn't stop, they'd be back, but next time it would be worse. Seems to have worked.

Fact:
China is modernizing its military because now they can afford too because their economy has improved to the point that they will no longer have to rob from the people to do so. Also, China two years ago said it would reduce its active military force by 1 million and met that goal a year ago.

Fact:
When China was hit by a series of devistating floods a year ago, they promised the people all the homes that were destroyed would be rebuilt by Feb of this year. These were brick and mortar homes that are common in China. They met that goal. Now, look at New Orleans and what has happened in 3 years.

Fact:
China has an election system in place at the province level. The president of China is then elected by their legislative system, much like it is done all over the world.

Fact:
While China has a one party system, they are slowly changing that. There are multiple parties withing China, albeit they are controlled by the ruling party. However, a non party member can now hold office as high as mayor. Only a few years ago that was unheard of.

Fact:
China does not fit the profile of a dictatorship or totalitarian. Look up both in the dictionary then get back and prove to me otherwise.

Fact:
China is slowly morphing into a federal republic democratic system at their own pace. Not the pace the west demands, but rather at a pace they feel is good for their country.

Fact:
China is not communistic since that is the polar opposite of Capitalism. Nor are they socialistic since China has a huge free market system. Doubt it, look it up in the dictionary and prove to me otherwise.

Fact:
China exports 21% of its products to us, the other 78% to the rest of the world. We export 5.3% of our exports to them but depend on them for 15.9% of our imports.

Fact:
I am an ex pat from the USA and live in the heart of China. Like all of you I believed the crap till I came here and saw first hand what it is really like here. I sure as hell wouldn't be living here if I knew what most of you say about China was true.

Fact:
What most people know of China would fit in a thimble, what most people THINK they know would fit in a barrel.

Fact:
China is little of what you think she is and much of what you want her to be.

Do I trust China? Based on their history and how much common sense they have along with that they seem to learn the lessons of the past, I would have to say, yes.

Peace

No and NEVER!!! !

I admire their subtleness and intelligence!

At one time they were considered inferior to the Europeans and the US!!!

They will become the economic and military superpower within 26 years on planet Earth!

They are ensuring that the US economy does not go downhill as Japan did in the 1980s.

They proved to be smarter than Russian style communism since they are still communist! The USSR no longer exists!

Capitalists have placed their countries in danger in pursuit of profits since China is the manufacturing capital of the world.

I trust China that:

1. China has nuclear bombs pointing at the US

2. China want to screw-up the US using Mitt Romney

3. China sell weapons to the Iraqi insurgents

Nope, sure don't. Right now they have the power to shut our country down, financially. We can only hope that they never abuse that power.

I also don't trust anyone from that country who hangs around this forum and busts the U.S. and it's policies. There's always an underlying reason for many things, I believe.
