I agree exactly. China is a great unknown. At some point they are going to demand democracy. In the meantime they are our largest worry.

It blew me away how Bush borrowed trillions from them to fight his wars against people who were no real threat to us; and took his eye off the rising China threat.

Bush was the only president to lower taxes during a war. He also fought the war off budget.

Those 8 years were critical to us. We could have been shoring up our computer scientists.

When past energy secretary Chu went to China he said he was received as a hero and here people did not even know who he was.
