Once Great nations decline, and new nations take their place. This is how it is in history. It never fails.........though the sorry American empire will have only lasted a few decades since its true inception after WW II.
1. China's rise took place after Deng Xiaoping adopted a more pragmatic approach IN state policy, away from Mao's Communist dogmatism of the 1950--1970's which had destructive side effects (60 million dead? Great Leap Forward, and other such disasters).
2. China's economic development is taking place not merely because of the ingenuity and hard work of the Chinese, investing heavily in infrastructure, industry, and exports, but also because of the generosity of America with MFN status in terms of preferential trade terms, credit, direct investments and technological transfers from the USA, and the nod of approval given to America's colonies to do likewise........Japan (50,000 American troops stationed their + baseball playing nation), South Korea (38,000 troops +baseball).......Germany (70,000 American troops, and significant control of its security apparatus).
3. China is successful because it is a dictatorship which has effective control over the nation, its people and its resources, and the state if it has good intentions can direct the whole nation into their stated objectives........Singapore(Lee Kwan Yew).
4. Another reason China is successful is the reason that China has compromised on its Socialist dogmatism in favor of a more Capitalist mixed economy. China is not a true Communist state in that sense beyond the symbolism, and homage to Mao. It is a state that shows flexibility in order to develop economically if not politically.
5. The Communist Party of China seems to be fairly "Democratic", in that the Party which determines the affairs of the state has not been captured by a specific family, or a clan of people from a particular part of Manchuria, by way of one example. In that sense it is quite "Meritocratic" Pan-nationalist.
6. The Communist Party seems to tackle the issue of corruption quite seriously. Corruption that is carried out by high and low officials is not tolerated by the state, and everybody understands this.
7. The Chinese have a sense of historical destiny, as a nation which for much of history, along with India were the richest nations on earth, until the entry of European colonialism, and its destructive effects on non-European nations. This sense of history, and pride makes the Chinese strive for betterment from their present Third World status.
8. Communism/Socialism is a Jewish Pseudo religion. There is out there in the ether (if you have the resources and means to research to find it out) that certain Jews from London, and NY backed Mao's rise to power in China, just as they did the Bolsheviks in the Russian Empire from 1918. In that sense Mao's rise to power, his eventual control of China in 1949, AND China's recent ascendancy should not merely be seen as a glorious rise and struggle of a political genius and thus his nation, but a guided potent of certain very powerful people in the Western hemisphere.
In the next few years China with its present growth trajectory will be the largest economy measured by PPP, if not by actual currency exchange value. Its economy is close to $10,000 billion measured by PPP, and within the next 4--8 years China should easily overtake the American economy. It at present is the greatest industrial power. It already exports more than America nearing $1,500 billion, and is the unofficial banker of the world with FCR approaching $2,000 billion.
Logically like America, economic power translates into military power, and China will of course follow suit. Hypothetically if the Chinese economy is about 16 trillion by 2015, by merely spending 3% of GDP on defense which is the standard around the world, its defense budget in actual terms will be close to $500 billion..........add the ICBM'S, stealth submarines, aircraft carriers and bases around the world, then by 2015 China defacto will be a global superpower, with a military machine containing 2.5 million personnel.
Unfortunately Jewish Communism is a revolutionary aggressive ideology with globalist pretensions, and should China become number 1 in this decade with such an state ideology still in place, with the economic and military power the consequences for the rest of the world could be negative to say the least.
Nations do "Flip"....Japan for thousands of years never attacked any neighbor seriously, and yet into the 1920's and 1930's especially, "Militarism" and empire became the dominant state ideology of this otherwise peaceful Island nation.
America is bad enough, as a lone superpower unchecked, but a chauvinistic Communist dictatorship with globalist pretensions could be far worse for the world. The "niceness' of China at present should be merely seen as tactical, heavily borrowing from the experience and fate of the Soviet Union (over spending on defense 1985..16--19%).
Unless the Chinese state rediscovers its ancient heritage and Confucius roots, and gradually embraces Liberal Democracy, as has most of the world......and slowly phases out Jewish Communism as a state ideology, the consequences for the world and China itself could be dire.
The problem is Communism with global pretensions, not China or the Chinese people.
SO...........this article by a left-wing professor from the USA, who has published and written many great books about the plight and struggle of the Third World is published and commented on.

One Side is Losing, the Other is Winning
By James Petras
January 03, 2010 "Information Clearing House" -- Asian capitalism, notably China and South Korea (Japan????.........they have zero ambitions??) are competing with the US for global power. Asian global power is driven by dynamic economic growth, while the US pursues a strategy of military-driven empire building.
One Day's Read of the Financial Times
Even a cursory read of a single issue of the Financial Times (December 28, 2009) illustrates the divergent strategies toward empire building. On page one, the lead article on the US is on its expanding military conflicts and its 'war on terror', entitled "Obama Demands Review of Terror List". In contrast, there are two page-one articles on China, which describe China's launching of the world's fastest long-distance passenger train service and China's decision to maintain its currency pegged to the US dollar as a mechanism to promote its robust export sector. While Obama turns the US focus on a fourth battle front (Yemen) in the 'war on terror' (after Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan), the Financial Times reports on the same page that a South Korean consortium has won a $20.4 billion dollar contract to develop civilian nuclear power plants for the United Arab Emirates, beating its US and European competitors.
(South Korea is where it is today because of American preferential economic treatment especially from the 1980's, before that it was a banana Republic run by military strongmen)
On page two of the FT there is a longer article elaborating on the new Chinese rail system, highlighting its superiority over the US rail service: The Chinese ultra-modern train takes passengers between two major cities, 1,100 kilometers, in less than 3 hours whereas the US Amtrack 'Express' takes 3 ½ hours to cover 300 kilometers between Boston and New York. While the US passenger rail system deteriorates from lack of investment and maintenance, China has spent $17 billion dollars constructing its express line. China plans to construct 18,000 kilometers of new track for its ultra-modern system by 2012, while the US will spend an equivalent amount in financing its 'military surge' in Afghanistan and Pakistan, as well as opening a new war front in Yemen.
(Obviously America seems like the White star which is about to implode into a black hole)
China builds a transport system linking producers and labor markets from the interior provinces with the manufacturing centers and ports on the coast, while on page 4 the Financial Times describes how the US is welded to its policy of confronting the 'Islamist threat' with an endless 'war on terror'. The decades-long wars and occupations of Moslem countries have diverted hundreds of billions of dollars of public funds to a militarist policy with no benefit to the US, while China modernizes its civilian economy.
(And if I told you there isn't a globalist Islamist threat would you believe me....but a contrived fiction for Israel's geo-strategic perceptions and need for a Greater Israel)
While the White House and Congress subsidize and pander to the militarist-colonial state of Israel with its insignificant resource base and market, alienating 1.5 billion Moslems (Financial Times - page 7), China's gross domestic product (GDP) grew 10 fold over the past 26 years (FT - page 9). While the US allocated over $1.4 trillion dollars to Wall Street and the military, increasing the fiscal and current account deficits, doubling unemployment and perpetuating the recession (FT - page 12), the Chinese government releases a stimulus package directed at its domestic manufacturing and construction sectors, leading to an 8% growth in GDP, a significant reduction of unemployment and 're-igniting linked economies' in Asia, Latin America and Africa (also on page 12).
While the US was spending time, resources and personnel in running 'elections' for its corrupt clients in Afghanistan and Iraq, and participating in pointless mediations between its intransigent Israeli partner and its impotent Palestinian client, the South Korean government backed a consortium headed by the Korea Electric Power Corporation in its successful bid on the $20.4 billion dollar nuclear power deal, opening the way for other billion-dollar contracts in the region (FT - page 13).
While the US was spending over $60 billion dollars on internal policing and multiplying the number and size of its 'homeland' security agencies in pursuit of potential 'terrorists', China was investing $25 billion dollars in 'cementing its energy trading relations' with Russia (FT - page 3).
The story told by the articles and headlines in a single day's issue of the Financial Times reflects a deeper reality, one that illustrates the great divide in the world today. The Asian countries, led by China, are reaching world power status on the basis of their massive domestic and foreign investments in manufacturing, transportation, technology and mining and mineral processing. In contrast, the US is a declining world power with a deteriorating society resulting from its military-driven empire building and its financial-speculative centered economy:
1. Washington pursues minor military clients in Asia; while China expands its trading and investment agreements with major economic partners - Russia, Japan, South Korea and elsewhere.
(Obviously 300,000 fighting AMERICAN men in Afghanistan as contractors and from the military this year eventually, pursuing about 10,000 local Taliban militia depending on the season, which in turn is run and controlled by the Pakistan military via the ISI, which is funded up to 50% of its budget by the USA taxpayer and thus controlled by America, borders on something.......speechless......Yes America is on the decline, if it sponsors and vigorously supports such situations with the straightest of New England faces and vocabulary)
2. Washington drains the domestic economy to finance overseas wars. China extracts minerals and energy resources to create its domestic job market in manufacturing.
3. The US invests in military technology to target local insurgents challenging US client regimes; China invests in civilian technology to create competitive exports.
4. China begins to restructure its economy toward developing the country's interior and allocates greater social spending to redress its gross imbalances and inequalities while the US rescues and reinforces the parasitical financial sector, which plundered industries (strips assets via mergers and acquisitions) and speculates on financial objectives with no impact on employment, productivity or competitiveness.
5. The US multiplies wars and troop build-ups in the Middle East, South Asia, the Horn of Africa and Caribbean; China provides investments and loans of over $25 billion dollars in building infrastructure, mineral extraction, energy production and assembly plants in Africa.
6. China signs multi-billion dollar trade and investment agreements with Iran, Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru and Bolivia, securing access to strategic energy, mineral and agricultural resources; Washington provides $6 billion in military aid to Colombia, secures seven military bases from President Uribe (to threaten Venezuela), backs a military coup in tiny Honduras and denounces Brazil and Bolivia for diversifying its economic ties with Iran.
7. China increases economic relations with dynamic Latin American economies, incorporating over 80% of the continent's population; the US partners with the failed state of Mexico, which has the worst economic performance in the hemisphere and where powerful drug cartels control wide regions and penetrate deep into the state apparatus.
(China is ALL good , America stands for ALL that is bad........as you imply)
Conclusion
China is not an exceptional capitalist country. Under Chinese capitalism, labor is exploited; inequalities in wealth and access to services are rampant; peasant-farmers are displaced by mega-dam projects and Chinese companies recklessly extract minerals and other natural resources in the Third World. However, China has created scores of millions of manufacturing jobs, reduced poverty faster and for more people in the shortest time span in history. Its banks mostly finance production. China doesn't bomb, invade or ravage other countries. In contrast, US capitalism has been harnessed to a monstrous global military machine that drains the domestic economy and lowers the domestic standard of living in order to fund its never-ending foreign wars. Finance, real estate and commercial capital undermine the manufacturing sector, drawing profits from speculation and cheap imports.
China invests in petroleum-rich countries; the US attacks them. China sells plates and bowls for Afghan wedding feasts; US drone aircraft bomb the celebrations. China invests in extractive industries, but, unlike European colonialists, it builds railroads, ports, airfields and provides easy credit. China does not finance and arm ethnic wars and 'color rebellions' like the US. China self-finances its own growth, trade and transportation system; the US sinks under a multi trillion dollar debt to finance its endless wars, bail out its Wall Street banks and prop up other non-productive sectors while many millions remain without jobs.
China will grow and exercise power through the market (Thus is China really a Communist state? Economically certainly not. And if the essence of communism is centered around the means of production, and how wealth is redistributed.....China psychologically, socially and economically is not a Communist state); the US will engage in endless wars on its road to bankruptcy and internal decay. China's diversified growth is linked to dynamic economic partners; US militarism has tied itself to narco-states (Afghanistan, Kosovo, Israel), warlord regimes, the overseers of banana republics and the last and worst bona fide racist colonial regime, Israel.
China entices the world's consumers. US global wars provoke terrorists here and abroad.
(There is no "al-Qaeda", there is no global jihadi movement.....ALL these organizations are "Controlled Opposition" of Western/Israeli intelligence, but as with South America, parts of Africa, Asia, there are a lot of people especially in the Third World who hate the living date lights about America........but this is merely impotent rage.......as a well informed professor you should not sell the "al-Qaeda" myth.......In the name of this myth much evil and mischief has been done by America and its allies.........It would go a along way if well informed well meaning people like you finally began debunking this piece of malicious myth, which has become the byword and enabler of so much harm around the world, and within America itself)
China may encounter crises and even workers rebellions, but it has the economic resources to accommodate them. The US is in crisis and may face domestic rebellion, but it has depleted its credit and its factories are all abroad and its overseas bases and military installations are liabilities, not assets. There are fewer factories in the US to re-employ its desperate workers: A social upheaval could see the American workers occupying the empty shells of its former factories.
(America does manufacture, it is the second largest industrial power after China presently--------its a little silly, just for the sake of emphasising an otherwise valid argument to say that there is no manufacturing in America.
If there is a rebellion in America, the a full police state will be instituted.......and the American gulags in the mainland are ready. Did you think ALL those security legislation in America since 2001 was to combat "al-Qaeda"? Seriously?????)
To become a 'normal state' we have to start all over: Close all investment banks and military bases abroad and return to America. We have to begin the long march toward rebuilding industry to serve our domestic needs, to living within our own natural environment and forsake empire building in favor of constructing a democratic socialist republic.
(I would close Wall Street, but allow the small regional banks to continue. Then the confiscation of ALL Jewish financial houses, not just investment banks.......the problem is not investment banks alone, per se, but the whole area and concept of Jewish finance.
Their tribal mentality, and culture.
Jewish Socialism does not work.........much of the world is striving to be liberal democratic, and the most successful countries are liberal Democratic. I am not aware of a successful Socialist state, unless you think Colonel Qaddafi's Socialist Utopia is what America needs to copy, or Cuba....or Venezuela?)
When will we pick up the Financial Times or any other daily and read about our own high-speed rail line carrying American passengers from New York to Boston in less than one hour? When will our own factories supply our hardware stores? When will we build wind, solar and ocean-based energy generators? When will we abandon our military bases and let the world's warlords, drug traffickers and terrorists face the justice of their own people?
(When you have leaders who work for America. When you don't have pawns chosen by Jewish finance with their very peculiar world view.........
Give me the secret copy of the REAL objectives of Jewish finance in America and the world on just one A4 paper, and any well informed person with common sense can take these skewered secret objectives apart for their lack of humanity, common sense and national interest.........instead you are left with sacred numbers, Ouija boards, Nostradamus, private soothsayers, brown calfs.......and a very primitive North African religion practiced secretly and not so secretly by some of the most powerful figures in your country.........which thus must mean disaster)
Will we ever read about these in the Financial Times?
In China, it all started with a revolution...
(Well at least officially, but unofficially backed by Jewish London and NY, as with Bolshevik Russia in 1918)
