    You know, watching the Chinese work has really been an eye opener. They truly have no moral compass when it comes to global trade and foreign economics. They are completely and totally ruthless, and that is why they are winning the global battle for dominance over the West.

    So, I think "What are the Chinese doing about Europe?" and the answer is.. nothing. They are content to see one of their competitors in the West crumble into oblivion and by extension weaken the United States still further.

    Well, in the interest of maintaining the balance of power and thereby preserving world peace, I propose a rather Chinese like solution.

    If we're going to be printing all this fake money and sending it over the Euros to keep the fat lazy Greek Socialists from bringing down the World Economy. I say, that we should attach some rather exploitative conditions to all this inflated scam dollars.

    I say something along the lines of certain concessions on mineral rights France might own in Africa for instance. Maybe we should extract trade guarantees that they will buy so much American Product a year, or something of that nature. Maybe we can force them to increase defense expenditures, and buy the weapons from us. Then once they have a reasonable sized military with some teeth, we won't have to take care of them anymore and we can leave the husk for Turkey to pick clean.

    We should be squeezing the EU for everything we can get like the Chinese would do, or are going to try to do to us at some point resulting in World War III. So I suggest in order to prevent World War III.. we cannabalize what we can from the EU for the coming conflict with China.

    Anyone Agree?

    I agree that the US did this to other countries years ago and now cannot stomach the same being done to them.

    Tough, ain't it, but something the US will need to get used to.

    Better get used to seeing ICBM's flying over your airspace first.

    Poor you. But rather a typically embarrassing American response.
    And indicative of my previous response.

    Are you implying that China is the reason America is so deep in debt?

    No, merely that they are ruthless and will crush us if we don't adopt a bit of their ruthlessness for ourselves. We can't beat them by "being nice".

    I think everyone who has taken a good look at how China's economy works can agree that China has a completely positive economy. When I use the word "positive" I mean in the macro-economic sense, which means it is devoid of morals and emotion, only statistical results.

    I don't think that the American Economy can be used to showcase or to criticize Europe's economic woes until the US cleans up its own financial mess.

    Oh stop it man. So an insignificant percentage of our population misses on some health care. The idea that the vast majority of Americans can't see a doctor or get health care is such a load of crap. If you work, you have access to health care.

    If you don't work but have kids, you have access to health care.

    Everyone else can survive just fine.

    Yeah, I do think that we should take advantage of it a little bit. At the very least we should get the heck out of there, and focus on investing in Asia. We need to start being more aggressive. We have China on our backs, we will have to find one way or another to decrease our growing trade deficit.

    I also agree that we need to put some hardcore strings on the money we send over to Europe.

    Have you ever been to our country? No, you haven't. I know you'll pull something out your backside but very few people in our country don't have healthcare. the BS 42 million number is phony. The number of people that are chronically uninsured is very small.

    Why should it be the Chinese who have the moral compass? It's US corporations who CHOOSE to outsource american jobs to China. Why is it immoral for the Chinese to let them? it helps their people by giving them more work to choose from. and American companies choose to import Chinese goods because they are cheaper....look at walmart.....They are the ones who choose to import forighn good at the expense of america the american people. The Chinese just just them. There is nothing immoral about it.

    But can you explain why it is claimed that over 60% of filed bankruptcy's in 2007 were due to health care costs?

    Like bankruptcy is a big deal these days. You go to court, the judge absolves your debt and you sit without credit for 7 years. BFD.

    The Chinese have their own problems. Their economy isn't stable by any means and their population grows weary of authoritarianism. Patience will prevail.

    I will disagree with some of this...

    The US doesn't underspend on education, it overspends on compulsory government indoctrination facilities.

    Fascists are left wing, most christians are aligned with the right.

    I am a redneck, you got a problem with that?

    Mussolini was a socialist, as was Hitler. Both were fascists and both were leftists. There is no right wing socialism.

    Explain why socialists were jailed under those regimes, explain why mussolini considered socialism was oposed to fascism because it was internationalist and therefore destructive of the nation and explain why modern day nazis are right wing
