You Americans should start working, and buying only the things that you can afford, instead of expecting the rest of the world to lend you money and pay for your stuff.

Yeah right! US is just trying to heavily regulate China's fast wealthy economic growth so the US can undermind and pocket more money from them. Because of our aggressive policies, China won't give in. They know from the examples of other countries dealing with our policies. They spiral downward.

Stop pointing fingers at China, It's US policies and spending that has made this country suffer. Our government(who is the cause) is just making you point blind fingers at anything to scapegoat them.

@temporarykins do we even need china

[2769242]

This is the first time ppl see China capabilities and power over the world. In ancient times China enjoyed this status before. thousands of years ago. History repeats itself. No need to fear just accept the fact. take it.

By soviet model I was referring to america's strategy in china.The idea that opening up trade with china will bring about democratic reform is wrong because the chinese are willing to massacre their own people where as the soviets were not.I do agree,though, with your characterization of the chinese system as a socialist-capitalist hybrid.

[frankystein12]

The modern 21st century China is not using the soviet model, its using a socialist capitalist model.

Over the past few years, China has become been the fastest growing U.S. export

market. From 2001 to 2005, U.S. exports to China rose by 118%; and from January-

November 2006 they were up by 33.0% over the same period in 2005. If these trends

continue, China could replace Japan as the third largest U.S. export market
