China is intimidating, Are they ready for USA?

Doesn't matter what the Chinese elite are ready for because the Chinese people are more than ready. They want everything Western and are restless for better living conditions, working conditions, and freedoms.

No longer can the Chinese leaders depend on a docile peasant population as in the past. Watch out because how they adjust will be very interesting.

China has a long memory. They still remember the opium wars. They noted the debacle over Afghanistan, and Iraq.

They have relaxed the one child policy. Not good for other nations. China is hungry for land, resources, and the good life.

The people think the Chinese government needs to be less kow towing, to the west. The people are more then happy to flex their muscle. The leaders want stability, so they want people to arise from poverty, but don't want to rock the boat. They have seen Bush/Blair/Iraq.

China played their hand well. China is flush with money, those that have money dictate, as the bankers bailout proved. China and espionage versus USA' bugging operations. No contest there.

USA' upper hand misplayed.

China' demographics young. USA' aging, just like all developed countries. No contest there.

Even the Roman Empire didn't last. In time all things come and depart.

Who is more hungrier? Who wants it the most? The success?

That's what will determine who is vanquished.

Yes. But not of military confrontation, but by sheer numbers in every sections of daily struggles, for survival

Ready for what,exactly ?

Dinner ?
