    So, book your ticket.

    I don't see anyone else falling over themselves to join up with the CCP. If it's so great - and given their demographic crisis - you'd think there would be a flood of people moving there, moving businesses there, etc.

    And yet. . . . nothing. If anything, they saw the writing on the wall and moved out.

    According to this report we’re going to parachute in and take over China. My dispassionate take: HaHaHaHa

    I predict you won't see boots on the ground in any significant number (special force, etc. not included) in your or my lifetime and probably in a lot of others too. I think we're done with that for a long time.

    It’s the principal reason why were reduced to waging our wars with other countries’ armies.

    So what is China going to handle their population bomb that is going to be going off in the next five to ten years?

    Yep. Cynical as it may be, better them than us. More important. Over there not over here. Our military is built on that principal.

    Yes, a wholly cynical, soulless and ghoulish principle.

    As least it's based in reality as opposed to fantasy and pie in the sky. Enjoy your daily slice. It seems like a regular part of your diet.

    You’re so deep in it you’d have to be force-fed the reality that our hegemonic grasp on the world is rapidly slipping whether you like it or not.

    It's not a "grasp of the world" silly man. It's a pursuit of our interests. Are you really this naïve?

    Do you always argue with yourself? Can you do it on another thread?

    And yet here you are, presumably ready to argue. Here’s another ‘off-topic’ post: Chinese don’t kill themselves like we do …
