yep indeed

and when you take into account how intertwined their trade still is

zo china had about 1/5 of our debt

even in the era of trump

1/5 is still a LOT

1/5 is hueg

like a scary ammount

for a country that was trying to peg their currency to ours for the longest time

i think that part has finally been stopped

pretty sure

OH, didn't expect THAT:

but still leaves them holding a hell of a bill to call in

Hell Russia done it already and nobody noticed...

People are pissed at SJW it seems.

they really don't like them

ya but russia didnt have anywhere near as much of the debt as china does

Russian holdings were pretty small

from what i understand

now if china did that

we would be in trouble, i think

It would be barely felt... :\

you are crazy

Our economy is growing at a fast pace, consumers confidence is high, and we are starting to create a lot of our products here in United States.

not that much

Most of that debt is OWNed by American corporations located in China.

We are bringing those Corporations back.

i think you really overestimate that growth if you think that growth would balance out china already

in a few years it could be done

probably 5 to 10

relax guys heres what will happen if China goes broke

but we def are Not there yet

We are heading in a positive direction like I said.

apple and nike become useless cuz they can't produce

So they get nationalised as companies

And the US will use that company money to pay the debt

done 😉

The debt that American companies in China that own will come with them to United States.

So really, if you look at the technicals... most of the money is own by American Companies in China.

While maybe 1/4th of that debt is owned by China itself.

i think a lot of that is incorrect, but i have no sources at the moment to back it up

For it to be impactful, they would have to take over United States companies somehow without forfeiting that debt.

its a communist state, dont put that behind them
