Bob, you live on a different planet from everyone else on this forum.
He lives in his own mind, his own bubble of fantasy.

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

One thing we know, however. With the Chinese economy contracting, Beijing will not be able to afford the most rapid military build-up since the Second World War. Chinese leaders must see a closing window of opportunity. Their motto for the generals and admirals: Use it or lose it. China's Strategic...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

China will not risk their economic links with the U.S. over Taiwan. China has been winning the economic trade with the U.S. Why negate that? Statements like this, on this forum, makes no sense. You all keep applying logic to actions. As we have learned from John, their actions will not be logical.....

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

It's getting very close to the time when this issue will be resolved. And both sides now realize that peaceful reunification has been abandoned. China will do as they've promised because it's their mandate to rule the nation. We'll see if these exercises have given them enough confidence, and equal...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

When it comes to China we all need to face the demographic realities. According to their own most recent census their population will fall 50% by 2050, and at that point in 2050 the OVERWHELMING majority of people will be over 60. China will never be the consumer market our corporations desire, and...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

Disappointing analysis by someone who seemed to have been trained at Beijing's school of journalism. Instead of calling China's threats a sinister monstrosity, unworthy of a civilised and responsible state, you give them credibility and treat them as they are the new normal in international relatio...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

It's now become clear that for Biden and his insane clown posse, "being tough" on China means intentionally crossing red lines in hopes of starting World War III. If we didn't lose the moral high ground to China before, we have now. Disappointing analysis by someone who seemed to have been trained ...
