There's no way we can stop it. Taiwan is going to be a problem though. Once the Chinese Navy is fully active, watch how they handle Taiwan. It's going to be interesting to see how we respond to that. The last I read on the issue was that we would supply material to Taiwan but that's it. That was over a year ago or more, so I don't know what the current stance is on Taiwan. dabum

we are financing china by buying their hard goods made from raw commodities and energy...so we get a real item in return for the money we give china.... china finances us by loaning us the dollars at incredibly low interest rates and then we pay them back in depreciated dollars.... who's getting the bad deal? they are financing our military superiority as well, and the richer nation wins that battle(eg ussr vs usa) "Its rather arrogant of us to think we can prevent the Chinese from building a world class army or navy. It's already happening and we're financing it with our direct foreign investment."
