Actually, I'm glad to see the value drop a little. Why you may ask? Assholes in Europe have had the trade advantage on us the same way China does...lower value of currency equals lower cost goods. That creates a need for more exports, that equals more work in the U.S.. Look at the news...which countries bitch the heaviest about the "declining U.S. dollar"? France and Germany! The same dirty fucks that abused the Food for Oil program!Quote:

Don't think I'll be going to Texas any time soon!
I like the Chinese culture. communism is very interesting. I just don't feel this has anything to do with the Chinese people. It has to do with their government and ours.Both the US and China, are scouring the world for oil, gas and minerals to help power their economy, There really are issues of National security too. It is like a giant game of monopoly and we are losing. The US and China have been buying up resources for some time. Our leaders are more interested in turning a profit, they are hoping the war will keep everyones eyes focus elsewhere while they sell off US companies, move them to China and pocket the profits. I wonder just how long the profits will last. It is a very bad economic move for us. It worries me that they are creating a false economy with the dollar and the human rights violations are still an issue. They have not gone away.
The yuan, is fixed to the US dollar, and is grossly undervalued, keeping China's exports artificially cheap, undermining US exports, putting many Americans out of work and threatening the closure of many industries
we have a whopping US trade deficit with China of 162 billion dollars in 2004, and Beijing used the surplus dollars to buy an array of modern weapons that threaten US security...
Less obvious: a far more insidious grab for industrial secrets. This electronic theft is taking place with the tacit okay, or at least the nonintervention, of the Beijing government.

from a chinese news paper....
It is assumed by many that one day China leading East Asia will simply walk over and totally surpass the old decadent West, and ascend to global supremacy. The United States will turn inward out of fear of domination, and along with their European compatriots leave the world to the rule of Asian powers, notably China. This view is shared by many within China....
Nice post!

Now I'm sure that China would never ever have these sort of imperialistic feelings! :rolleyes:
That's the craziest thing I've ever read.Quote:

FEAR!!
The magic word... and the word that rules absolutely everything in the US, left, right, center, old, young, middle... Fear is the motto by which you live your lives. Don't fear, there's no point at all. I say embrace China, let's welcome them into the international community. Let's show them that we're not afraid, but instead we're happy to have such a power on our side.
I know that sounds real hippy and overly optimistic, but what if the West tried it out for once instead of automatically alienating new power players?
