>>4133766China will either destroy itself or goble up half the world. Nobody is talking about China's steadily growing influence in all parts of the world. It's soft imperialism at it's finest. The US should take notes.
The thing about the US is that unfortunately it can afford to make huge mistakes with very little consequences. We're the big kid on the play ground. Hopefully we will have competent people in positions of power the day that status goes away, but I have 0 confidence in that.
