Re: China Next SuperPower!
said by bogey780  :I'm not saying they didn't invent things. They just gave it up a long time ago and collapsed inward. ... throughout the history civilizations have gone through cycles of upward and downward movements with stagnation in between (some perishing completely in the process) ...
... if they seems to be going through another cycle of upward movement, their effort should be appreciated rather than looked down upon ... I'll clap for their effort ...

I used to hang out on the English language People'sDaily website. You'd be amazed how many Chinese nationals are like this. China is a country that does a great job of copying and claiming inovation. Every couple weeks they're touting some new discovery that proves they did everything first (Soccer, discovery of North America, etc). When their pilot crashed into our EP-3 in international airspace they went nuts.
If you get a chance and want to cry from the stuidity, read any Xinhua publication. According to them the death penalty in America is used almost exclusively on black people among other wonderful interesting claims. |

BhuddaBlessU, I know it may seem like China is rising, but they are going to have to do something MAJOR about their pollution. By pollution, I mean AIR POLLUTION. There is so much coal burning in that country, that we won't have to worry about a war, because everyone will get sick and die from all the smog. The pollution is so bad, it is considered one of the worlds largest greenhouse gas emitters. The simple fact remains, if America needed to do something to China in the case of war, it would be another Hiroshima. We still have many things that are stealth to their Army. Sorry brother, but guess who SOLD China the transistor, thats right, we "amerikans" did because we invented it. You'd still be using your Abicus today if it wasn't for us. President Bush is a crappy example of why politics go wrong. I dare you to compare China's leader to, say, umm, Bill Clinton. Or how about Regan. Sorry bro, but China will NOT be a place I would visit, especially considering what the death penalty is more common than, say, a ranting post like yours and mine...
