    AJ, You say that youve had some experience with the Chinese, and I seem to remember that youve traveled there. So talk about what youve seen and learned of them, and their mindset. My experience is limited to about 3 examples.

    -The old Chinese people who Id run into in Chinatown in NYC who were very closed, not at all interested in expanding their horizons, not really even interested in learning English, beyond what they need to run the restaurant.

    -The seemingly very bright Asian kids I met when I visited U. Cal. Berkeley.

    -My physical therapist who also has a Phd in biology.

    The last two groups didnt exhibit that isolationist attitude, and were very outgoing and upwardly mobile.

    So Id just like to hear your general views, anything that might be of interest and value. Photos would be great.

    And when you say your prayer for m in church tomorrow, tell the good lord to send me a winning lottery ticket.;)

    China Chinese are very good people, I am talking the young engineers, and the ship yard workers. The workers like to drink beer, the engineers that are older like to drink rot gut whiskey that is branded as American, the youngers like light beer and fruit while playing pool and doing Karaoke because they gotta work their asses off the next day, they are pretty mellow compared to the rest of first world Asia. They all liked Americans, very much, the rich, the uber rich they like Americans too but they are usually one step removed or still in the Communist Mafia. I liked hanging with the young engineers from our labs and shipyard workers from the yards I was getting ships built, they are usually smart to very smart and hard working in the harshest environments, many who had parents that survived the cultural revolution, welders whose parents were doctors who were either killed of stripped of everything back in the 70's now are factory workers skimping by. China does not value life like we do, hell nobody does really. Think of the Chinese hierarchy like this, there are 300 million Chinese (who have 95% of the wealth) and 1 billion serfs who have the other 5%, everyone there is not starving, no starvation or famine since 75 or so, this is the longest period in their history that they have not had a famine that killed millions. China's biggest fear is domestic unrest, not external threats. Domestic unrest will come with a simple economic downturn, they cant handle a zero growth environment for more than a year and maybe not even that, they will have to go back to Mao times to keep the peace so to speak. This is what Trump is using as a wedge with them and the NORKS. Keep in mind pre Korean war we have no historical animosity with China, actually we did a great deal to undermine her colonization by the great powers early in our own history. That being said the Communists , who still very much run things with a iron fist in a velvet glove, are our strategic rivals and resent our success at every turn and in every area, Bush the senior should have undermined the regime when the Tienanmen square protest was happening, he chose not to so 1 billion people now live as serfs because of him. That is a lesson on the NWO for you. His support of the Communists and inaction is also telling what our so called leaders think of themselves and of the people in our own country.

    They are not Chinese they are Hells kitchen residents, every ethnic group there is closed, even if you think otherwise. Most, if they work in the restaurant business are illegals unless they own the place or are second gen.

    -The seemingly very bright Asian kids I met when I visited U. Cal. Berkeley.

    They are usually Kali kids, I find the NY kids smarter and more reliable.

    -My physical therapist who also has a Phd in biology.

    The last two groups didnt exhibit that isolationist attitude, and were very outgoing and upwardly mobile.

    Being married to an Asian American I can tell you they are a pretty diverse group and by second gen just like every other typical fat american kid.

    So Id just like to hear your general views, anything that might be of interest and value. Photos would be great.

    I dont have anything of value to say other than always stay prepared for the worst and hope for something better. And thank god or whoever the fk every day you were born here.
