Chinese Economics Thread

Many Americans and Westerners deeply want China to fail because they feel that they deserve to be on top of the world, and China is the only entity (besides Russia, which they also hate but which they look down on more) challenging that right now. The notion that all nations everywhere deserve to be equal and not under the thumb of the Anglo-American axis is profoundly threatening to them.

Their biggest fear is that China has the world's best companies and universities, and that China essentially becomes like them. Take it from one of their elites:

@gadgetcool5 I really don't understand your position on China at all. One minute your comment comes across like it's taken out from Serpentza aka China hater and then the next you sound reasonable, even intelligent with respect to your opinion on China like the one's you just made. It's honestly quite interesting and puzzling to say the least.

Schizophrenia's a hell of a disease. Other than that, this is his cheap way to credit his Serpentza posts by showing others that he makes China-supporting posts as well hoping to fool some people into thinking that he's balanced. And I have never seen him write an intelligent post; his "pro-China" posts are basically 1. China needs to be self-sufficient in technology, and 2. the West doesn't want China to surpass them. Duh... Captain Obvious strikes again; if a 12 year old happens to be reading into the Sino-US relationship, he could learn from them on his first day.

Is something that I have noticed since the 2008 financial crisis, this "look over there and no here" mentality that is permeating the U.S. and the West in general, usually used by elites to distract from real problems affecting their countries. Anyone who was in the internet in 2007, could have no escaped the barrage of articles after articles about the coming "collapse of China" and how this was the "end" not very different than 2012, 2015 and today. A year later in 2008 the entire Western economy collapsed into oblivion, because a problem that was in their sight all the time.

1. Don't ask me; ask the dude who made the claim.
2. They never did.
3. It's assumed because if your power grows beyond your current control range, you want to expand that range to match your power. You wouldn't say it but you'd just go for it.
It's partly a rhetorical question, and partly serious. I just thought that perhaps I missed reading that grandiose pronouncement and figured you maybe aware of it.
