Eventually China will have the largest consumer market in the world and it is best to be on their good side when that time comes.


The US has let China manipulate our currency based on the idea that it is good for the consumer and the capital markets. The capital markets mostly need help because of Federal debt. The time has come for the US to re-evaluate this position and work with China to ensure that US exports to China increase and the trade imbalance decreases.


So far the relationship has been a net gain but prolonged underemployment in the US is eroding those gains and if this continues everyone will lose.

China has not been good to anyone over the years. China is calculating and amoral and acts only in self-interest, or the interests of the elite. The main reason why China has done poorly is because the average Chinese can't compete globally once you strip away China's cheating (robbing the poor, colonizing brown people, monopolies).


China elites aren't chumps though and have more capital in their hands than their counterparts anywhere, mostly because they rape the poor not only in China but in their overseas dependencies and puppet/vassal states.

China's focus has been strengthening their trade with the EU [now their largest trading partner] as well as those countries in near physical proximity to them - Japan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore, etc.

in most ways China is our friend. And we have been very good to them over the years. BUT we need a new plan to compete globally, and the need for that plan is in large part due to China cheating. That doesn't make them our enemy for sure. But it does mean we need to reevaluate our rules.

China and USA has pretty tight symbiosis, because of their loans you guys can go around playing world police and because of your sweet business deals China is slowly rising as world power.
