8. Don't panic, my friend.
The Chinese are not our enemy. They're just taking advantage of US economic policy. The fact that they aren't investing in our military fantasy (multi-billion dollar aircraft carriers) is our problem, not theirs. Their investing in low cost missiles that can kill carriers....we ought to understand that, but we are too wedded to the US MIC to really understand the next threat to this country. We'll get killed by a $700BB/year military budget, not by what the Chinese are doing in the So. China Sea.
