Yeah, that's the bullshit we've all been sold.... biggest load of crap ever...
Yeah, we are the world's mine alright.. And biggest load of greedy money grubbing swarm of carpet baggers descended on us. .
We could recycle our waste and completely cut the rest of the planet off and still live happily ever after.
China has built cities that haven't even been inhabited... They probably owe us trillions and haven't paid their bills.
Greed doesn't even enter into it..
Be thankful you are able to get your most valuable resources to market..
This country has the world's third largest proven reserves of recoverable oil and we are forced to sell it to the USA at a fifty per cent discount because we can't get pipelines to tidewater and international markets like China and international prices..
Meanwhile the USA is now the world's biggest producer of oil and will need our crude even less..
The lack of access to international markets costs this country over one hundred million dollars a day not to mention billions of dollars in foreign investment and the thousands of good mortgage paying jobs that go along with that..
As for China wasting infrastructure money, that money is owed to Chinese, not Australians.

China is in some aspects where the USA is now and where it was just prior to WW1. It will probably lead to the US and China engaging in WW3, with numerous partners on either side, and we're all going to suffer for it.
China has no interest in being what the US is or like a colonial European power. They see their nation as the centre of the universe. And they watch the West destroy itself with costly green energy scams and turd world immigration. They are very good at biding their time and they way we are destroying ourselves from within we will all be vassal states sooner rather than later.
One decent bird flu stike will take out a 1/3 of China, maybe more.

Quote from: "Herman"China needs the USA to buy it's rubbish lead infested products.Quote
Actually, Australia needs China to buy it's natural resources more than China needs the USA to biy it's manufactured wares.

America owes a shit load of money to the Chinese workers who bought American bonds to keep America afloat. (poor Chinese workers suckered in again).Quote
It was probably a reaction to the msg in my Char Kway Teow.Quote from: "caskur"
Workers all over China bought about $1000 worth of American bonds to get America out of the shit when Wall Street took a dive... In other the slave labour communists helped the worthless capitalist out of their bind. Really the American wanker should have been shot.

Caskur has to pay to eat what she thinks are Asian dishes just like North Americans think they're buying authentic Mexican food when they head out to Taco Bell or Chi Chi's.Quote from: "Dinky Dianna"
It has components in it which are regionally flavoured but as a whole, what they're getting is fusion at best and a total balls up otherwise.

Quote from: "Zetsu"I'll give you a job as my head chef Zetsu if you can rustle me up some Char Kway Teow!Quote from: "caskur"
I'm going to be like Oprah when I win 22 million on lotto and hire myself a chef.
Tbh I never tried that dish or heard of it, but at least it looks tasty on google.ac_cool Though one thing I never understand is why a lot of White folks enjoy those China town food, my uncle from Hong Kong always calls it scamming foreigner food, lol.
Quote from: "Fashionista"Sorry Caskur I just don't understand what exactly is your point, honestly your argument is all over the place. First you're saying Apple and other investors are exploiting their workers, then deaths every year in mining and now Chinese hierarchy don't care about their citizens, I don't understand are you referring to the government or businesses, but there has been a minimum wage increase almost every year and labour protection law that have cause the QC of Chinese made goods to drop drastically. Though one thing I agree is Chinese ppl have ethics issues in general, but I can't say is it b/c of this business owners treat their workers like they're disposable or just don't care what happens to them, on a spectrum I agree China is worst, but the West has it's fair shares of death at work place or disasters in the past too that isn't a lot better than China current state as they are right now due to drastic development and changes.Quote from: "Zetsu"
China today is like Taiwan was in the eighties..
It's making huge progress in improving the quality of life(labour for example) for it's citizens, but it's got a way to go yet..
Unlike most developing nations which don't seem to care about improving the lives of it's citizens, China deserves credit for what it has achieved in just a few short decades..
China is using the same formula that the Asian dragons(Taiwan, South Korea, Hong Kong and Singapore) followed with rapid economic growth that lifted millions out of poverty combined with authoritarian governments at the time..
The big difference is of course China is a massive country with 1.4 billion people while the Asian dragons are small..
It will take longer for China to reach the level of human development that Taiwan and South Korea enjoy today..
And they may never quite get there with a permanent rural underclass.
