South China Sea: Beijing attacks US 'trouble-making'

4. You have got to be kidding me.

If this country decides to cut importing junk from China even by 10%, the Chinese economy will go into a tailspin.

When your economy is almost devoid of an interior market and must export or die, you must be careful not to piss off your biggest customer.

And the idea that China can crash our economy because they own the bulk of our debt is erroneous, they only own the largest fraction that is held offshore. The vast bulk of our debt is held domestically.
