China has been propping up our mindless consumption economy by breaking their backs in sweatshop labor and choking on their own pollution; they have been propping up our dollar by parking the fruits of the labor of their people in our increasingly worthless treasuries.
It may not be pretty and it may not be moral, but China will do what's best for China, eventually, and not a damn thing our free lunch fools can do about it. The Lexus has crashed into the Olive Tree, and we should all pray to God that Thomas Friedman's dangerous propaganda is dead.
Listen to these people here berating China for having a "command" economy -- as if handing over trillions of dollars to a cartel of financial criminals who are looting our Treasury, who gutted our industries and outsourced them to the world, who bought up our politicians and destroyed our democracy, who repealed age-old usury laws and threw millions into misery, who destroyed the unions, who lied about globalization, who opened our borders to a flood of immigrants to betray our own workers, our own middle class -- to call the actions of this pack of venal gangsters, who even today constitute a massive financial parasite, sucking the blood of a dying nation: to call this pathetic state of affairs "free market economics" is the height of hypocrisy and the apex of idiocy.
