The Rabbit Hole

No need, there’s nothing ironic about equating America to a bully on the block. Quaint, maybe. Perhaps even ignorant. Not so ironic though. lol

Slight difference being they don’t have a need to escape a communist country.

Yes that is true. Most Hong Konians despise mainland China, and their invasion has been pretty devastating in terms of quality of life! I have a very good friend who I regularly Golf with has told me of all the changes that has taken place over the years, and one that stands out the most is property prices have sky rocketed since they invaded. Not to mention he said walking down the streets has never been as crowed as it is now. Every freaking day I have to fight through crowds just to get to the office in central. It totally sucks. No matter what, it is something I can never get used to. Another thing is the movie industry in which Hong Kong is known to have its own style until the Chinese came in and took over major portions of it. The movies Chinese make are shit, and they can’t act their way out of a paper bag. At this point I am of the opinion that anything the Chinese touch just turns to shit!

12 nautical miles I believe.

Exclusive economic zone reaches out 200 NM.

What makes that area so important is it’s main navigation/shipping lane for about half of world shipping.

Two words.

(Donald Trump) At least that’s what they’re implying while ignoring how under Obama weaponizing federal agencies such as IRS, CoJ, FBI, CIA and NSA.

I think the article did say it had been declining for years, implying long before Trump.

Yeah this.

‘Trump is a symptom not a cause. His presidency is illuminating some of the problems.’

In which the article is correct IMO, but that’s not what mainstream media is saying thou.

I guess my point was that nothing was mention of Obama admin, and what happen starting with fast and furious gun program.

We hit our peak a while ago and sold off our successes elsewhere. We don’t have another 200 years.

IMO we should do more to encourage growth of Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia and of course Philippians.

TPP was a shitty deal. As one Boeing executive (client) told me that deal would have sold cheap goods to United States from those countries while selling Boeing planes to those other countries that’s made in China.
