Paul Dibb: The rise of China and the inevitable decline of America

[kaushiksays]

Military capabilities beyond nuclear power ? Wonder what is he talking about when he refers to combat. Even if 1% of nuclear weapons are successful it's enough for a apocalypse and unrepairable environmental damage and economic collapse

[Youmeandthatguy53]

America's decline is not quite as simple as it looks keep in mind that the U.S as of right now is number 1 if the government wanted to they could eliminate china's ability to fight and move them from superpower status to 3rd or 4th world status "4th world meaning fallout unlivable"

@Youmeandthatguy53 Our givt spends too much money and our economy collapsed. What else is there to it?

[jbranstetter04]

@Youmeandthatguy53 Exactly! But what prevents us from smashing China into the ground? China has nuclear weapons, but believe me they could be dealt with, as they are nothing compared to the old Soviet Union. Once again, what stops us from doing it? It's easy, it's not who we are. We are the ones who initiated the opening up of China in the first place. We want freedom for all the peoples of the world. We understand that freedom in the end will always win-out over tyranny.

Very Australian. Out of it, kinda.

[ginrou]

it feels like he's underplaying china's armed forces and espionage capabilities. it's also surprising how he left out china's trade relations with the african continent as a whole which would have major implications on world economics in the future

who can have done worse than america in dominating world power, its blind obedience to Israel has turned it into the most vicious, blood thirsty and destructive world power since the Roman Empire without the technological contribution which is more to do with the East than America.

[airforcemax]

China is currently helping other regions with the financial dilemmas the United States should had done to defeat adversaries instead of wars that created enemies that benefit few Americans.

[Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh]

Looks like a very good professor.
