Phil > It seems it is America's God given right to the world's oil, no matter where it exists, even in Asia, and for China to have the gall to buy these assets at the going price plus, is just not acceptable!

That's it. US power was based on oil and they want it remain that way. Of course, today it's based on the printing press.

> capitalists should own the world. Capital is the property of capitalists, and to be a capitalist is to be American. And if there is one thing Americans excel at is to have the ability to produce capital out of thin air.

I'm not sure any more that to be a capitalist is to be an American? It may have been true in the past but rats have a habit of leaving a sinking ship and there's no doubt that the US, especially under W and his band of gangsters, is in very troubled waters.
