  • Actually sadly enough, I believe China blew their chance for world power in this decade. They grew too much, polluted TOO much, and their people want more than the communist government gives. The human factor "want" is the ultimate weapon of communism, people will always want more which means communism can never last. China has polluted so much they can't breathe well,their waters are chemical and algae infested,and their land is covered in pesticides from them overusing it, China is in troub

  • Are we as a nation to accomodate every nationality that enters America by having teachers that can teach Vietnamese, Spanish, Korean, Laotian, etc. ad nauseum? This is an ENGLISH speaking country where my Italian forefathers LEARNED the language AND the CUSTOMS, in order to be a citizen! Wake up America, stand up and defend the majority rule, and put all Senators and Congressman on the same retirement of the COMMON man; and then Social Security will be fixed!!! Wahpoose

  • I do agree with the Peoples Republic wanting to go green but they should really do the best the can to help those former plant workers.

  • Right... just the Americans are sheeple...

  • economically, currently China is the top of the list, followed by Japan and then Germany

    And all the sudden, just like 1901, the predominant westernize nations are already making a pretext for invasion again

    and the sad part is they got CIA stooges for their cause in which to true agenda is to weaken China

  • they did, and had a booming trade deficit over britain and the west with tea, silk, and other good, until britain came with guns to force opium on them and to grab their markets by the scruff of the neck. it was not until the communist revolution that china gained control of its markets again.

  • What would happen to the Chinese if they closed up shop and didn't talk to world like it did for 3,000 years during that one dynasty?

    Well the other nations leave them alone like they did for 3,000 years except for the Mongols that is.

    I think China just needs to really consider this for awhile, might be good for every other nation as well.

    Maybe force your own nations to produce it's own plastic goods, electronics, textiles, etc.

    All of you can be employed in your own nations and countries!

  • Why?

  • China sealed its borders for centuries

  • say high to Dick Cheney for me!

    The American sheeple love him!
