In Reply to: China's been off the coast for a long time posted by Story on November 4, 2021 at 03:05:54:
Assuming a foreign power really wants to take over a shambling ungovernable mess of a country with a heavily armed citizenry, what difference does it make to average Americans?
What are they going to do, put all of our electronic communications under surveillance? We already do that to ourselves.
They going to kill American citizens without any due process? Our own government already does it.
They going to put us in re-education camps? Hell, our own government already operates for-profit concentration camps.
All the political partisanship here, the reality is that nothing really changes no matter which party is running things. Pennsylvania, for example, is the same decade in and decade out, regardless of which party controls the state. Billionaires make the rules the rest of us live by and politicians from both parties dance to their tune. That's how it's always been and how it always will be. Doesn't matter if the US president's last name is Trump, Biden, or Xi.
If the Chinese took over tomorrow, little would change and few would even notice. Except maybe we'd have cheaper prescription drugs and free college.
BTW, that crooked machine pol in South Jersey is losing to a truck driver who spent $153 on his campaign.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
