i’m okay with it. The balance of military power has to change with the economy. It’s only a matter of time before China passes the US. ---

I was reading recently about their new “stealth fighter” which appeared on the web… and how no one actually saw it fly, lol. They’ve had a terrible track record developing weapons that are reliable and actually function, and there seems to be a consensus that these military “advances” are mostly props & propaganda. Much like the ghost cities thread. ---

It would probably misfire and go all over their own ship. Do you think the Chinese bitch about cheap Chinese junk? Besides, major military power is a thing of the past. A strong interconnected economy is much more powerful and dangerous. They’re not going to shoot at us and we’re not going to shoot at them. ---

i agree, but you’re smart… most of your natives only care about who has the bigger gun. it’ll matter in the red states. ---

Methinks their military power is as much of a shell game/house of cards as our economic power is. :mindfuck:
