There won't be any war because the global economy is far too intertwined. In today's world, money is king, so bankers and banks are the rulers.
Question for Chinese members:
Do you guys know anything about Nicholas Rockefeller? He's part of a powerful Jewish family and he seems to have...
Props to China. I get the sense that Chinese women are actually ahead of Japanese and Korean women in social standing. This is based off some research I've done.
America didn't even allow a woman to go to the moon, even though we went 7 times to the moon.
Jews are powerful because they have large influence with the strongest governments in the world. Governments like the US, British, and other governments in western Europe.
I wonder how much influence they have in Asian governments.
The problem with spending on the military, even if it is domestic, is that the money doesn't trickle down. Most of the money stays with a small group of people.
Is this industry even that important to China? If it is I'm sure the government would have made the foreign companies do joint ventures like the do for other industries.
Foreign companies dominate the purse/bag industry in China also.
This whole ordeal has been pretty insulting if you think about it. All these nations(including America) thinking they can still change your mind after you've made your decision.
These countries are treating India like a kid who can be persuaded after the fact, instead of a man who means what...
Manufacturing is what creates new wealth, and is vital for developing nations.
One important thing manufacturing does is it creates a lot of jobs at modest salary; this helps transfer wealth down to the common people. It is the type of job that has built every developed nation's middle class...
I don't really like nation building because I'm more of a Libertarian, but as an American I can understand the perspective. Right now it's in our interest to have a presence in the Asia-Pacific region, and we still have a muscle to do so.
I do think, though, that in the coming decades our...
A lot of people here don't understand where innovation/invention comes from.
Innovation is simply putting existing ideas together to form a new idea. This means the more existing ideas you are aware of, and the more time you have to test them, the more chances you can come up with something...
I'm talking about the rift between China and Hong Kong.
BTW, I just read some comments from this video:
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
There seems to be a lot of hatred between both sides, even people saying that Chinese people all over the world look down on mainland chinese people.
Can't believe this guy is making a living off reputation of someone living over 2000 years ago.
But I digress.
Can Chinese members expand on this issue? How big of a problem is this?
Although the pro-China group party won, it should be troubling for Chinese members that the anti-China party received 46.3% of the vote.

It's a long ways away from reunification.
If you think it's so effective to use a Chinese person to spew "propaganda" about China, why don't the Chinese use white people to criticize America or the West whenever they do?
BTW, I think the piece is ridiculous also, but it doesn't make it propaganda. The author is just terrible at his job.
Honestly, I don't know.
I do know that some of my relatives were pretty pissed to see Obama elected, partly because he was black. This wasn't an uncommon sentiment. There's still a large portion of America who hates the fact the Obama is black. There's always a racial undertone to the...
I respect China in this department. We haven't helped them in the same way because we want them depending on us. I think that's an absolutely valid thing to do. However, I'm a realist, I know what the West has done in Africa. I've studied imperialism, Colonialism, and Neo-Colonialism, which...
