While many peoples in US are taking food stamps which are not good enough for them,America should support them properly instead waisting money in wars.China is over taking the world economy with a cool mind without any war even they have disputed land and sea with India,Russia,Taiwan,Japan and many other nations
A very stronge EU currency is already near to its death because of the crisis in Greece,Italy,Portugal and Spain while Finland has already said they will not take any burden of other bankruppted EU nations better to get away from Euro Zone.
It's simply a question of following the money, because that is what all this is about... it really doesn't matter what country or whose citizens or the illusion of 'morals' of whatever wars and how many people die for the sake of someones profit... well, and power.
Until the average American realizes that this is why even they have less and less..less jobs, services, rights, that their government is owned by the deepest pockets who have deregulated us to death, that they've been sold down the same river of woe that the rest of the worlds victims have been.... there will be no change... a unified outrage is required.
The last 20 years have been nothing but a financial feeding frenzy of a few and to hell with anyone and everyone else.

Will last a lot longer than my interest in the piece of crap.
On the other hand, that '72 Mustang will last an entire life time. In fact, two thousand years from now the North American Alliance will possibly be suing nations like Greece to have them return all of the ones that were purchased legally from the free market claiming cultural heritage etc.
Nobody will be asking for their slicer/dicer to be returned Chris.
I think you confusing, industrial with cultural heritage.

chris27292729: China is guided by the history,not to run fast,steady does it..
No. They were guided by the ancient belief they were the center of the world and therefore no need to seek other pastures. That belief has in recent years been shattered and now they realize that to survive they need to work with the rest of the planet.
How they wish to do it is up to their dictatorship.

I am always amused at those from other countries who have never been here and really know nothing about us, but seem to be able to tell us what to do and criticize.
If we are so bad then why is it that scores of people try to enter our country both legally and illegally almost daily?
the people who criticize us for being the world's policemen are the first ones to criticize when we do NOT help abroad AND they are ironically the first to come running to us for help or aid if they get in trouble. so don't bore me with whining over our miltary presence
I agree that the Indochinese and central Asian/Middle Eastern nations have far more to fear from China than from the US. A time may come when you wish we were in your sector, but we won't be.
other than that there are many americans who do not receive food stamps (most) and I agree that foreign aid should be put on hold until we raise the standard of living at home. but people need to WORK for what they get in life so a welfare state is not the best way to raise the standard of living in the US or anywhere. SO they should support THEMSELVES. Food Stamps are emergency assistance - they were never intended to be a career choice....
Lastly, the internal affairs of our country are no one else's business.
And if the attitude is to criticize - then just stay away altogether - with those criticisms we assume you are happy where you are. that's fine with us here.

China still has a very insular way of being international. Notably its politics isn't being influenced towards Democracy the wealthier it becomes, which is what the Western mindset expects to see, also, and in stark contrast to the West, no matter where China goes looking for raw materials in the World they always seem to employ nearly entirely Chinese people.
Their relationship of state direction within market systems, the undemocratic beliefs, the range of protectionist policies and the mass appeal of their vehement nationalism is like a 21st century National Socialism. China still does view itself as the centre of the world, like every power has/does, however China does this in a much more literal sense than most.
One thing American tax payer money should do...is to provide for the defense of the country and its people. If foreign country harbor individuals that are threats to not only their own people but also to Americans, then some of that tax money should use to deter such threats.
If we're going by economic markers, Russia does not compete with the Western European countries post WW2. Countries like Italy, Netherlands, even Austria were double digit growth after 1945 for some time. Even Greece had average of 10% growth the whole way to 1956.

By 'China' you mean the handful of senior party members of course. Hell with the people.
Someday a system such as that will implode just as many others have before them.
