Warren has actually said that tariffs are a legitimate way to get shit done in the trade war, but she paints it as a "get back at the big corporations" thing.
If we were to take all the best parts of the politicians, we could make one good candidate. But individually all of them, whichever party, are terrible.
>The difference is China has cultural and racial unity, even if they collapse they will come back.
This is not true though. China wants to believe and enforce that it has cultural and racial unity. The closer you look at it, the less this is true in reality, and you can perceive all kinds of ethnic differences and divisions. It's just one type of strategy - to homogenize and create conformity to an inspirational national identity. The United States of America has chosen a different strategy similar to the ones used in the British, European, Roman tradition of dividing and conquering. Hence "diversity is our strength" and so on.
The real story about Chinese demographics is not ethnicity. It's age. It's fairly likely that the Chinese will grow old before they grow rich, and the one child policy will undermine any opportunity they had to be a superpower. Most likely they will go the way of Japan in the 80s. There was a lot of hullabaloo about the Japanese buying up the world and charts extrapolated growth out to forever. Turns out you need to have a growing population of working age people, technical talent, and so on.
I would not make a bet on homogeneity if I were you guys. By comparison - even though it has its own problems - the story of the United States is one of openness to immigration and generally more competent and responsive demographic management. You can't just wave a wand and force people to make babies, and the Chinese will learn that the hard way. Even if you dislike the effects of the South American influx in particular, culturally speaking they at least come from a European legacy in the Americas and will easily fit into American society over time. Similarly, immigration from countries like India is a cultural legacy of the British Empire and gives America talent and advantages it wouldn't otherwise have. Don't let dumb leftist zealotry and conformity blind you to the reality of these issues.

The problem with Chinese debt is, a lot of the companies are government owned. If they do catch a breeze and start having financial problems, the government will have to bail them out. Essentially, their corporate debt is government debt. No one expects the entire corporate debt to shift to the latter, but it's still huge GDP wise. Then there are government guarantees that you need to worry about, but I'm not sure what the state of those is.
This..
Short yuan like there is no tomorrow..
>total debt is meaningless, only public debt of government matters
Lol.. No...
A massive segment of the Chinese economy runs on that debt.
It's state owned banks that loan to state owned corporations that create make-work jobs.
And they build ghost cities and high-speed rail that needs more subsidies to keep running.
If the corporations can't pay their loans they default and the banks will go bust.
People lose their jobs and people that deposited money in the banks lose savings..
Confidence would drop, people try to sell their house to recoup money..
And so the mother of all housing bubbles goes pop...
China has no real option but to bailout the banks out with more yuan..
They basically got through 2008 with debt steroids and now they're gonna pay for it..
The banks are already dying..

China doesn't need a army to fight the US.
There are over 200 million armed civilian plebs within the US, it's a ticking timebomb.
It's hard to main civil unrest when your president is incompetent.
H1B/O1B visa.
America owes their prosperity to the H1B/O1B geniusses..
Science still is the engine of Prosperity.
The average native born america is a sub-IQ semi retard.
The average Chinese is ranked among the smartest people on the planet.
>Option 1
China keeps devaluing its currency to keep exporting to the wests declining consumer base. This will result in civil war in china
>Option 2
China dumps its US bonds. This will result in a civil war in china
Either way, China loses
