This hardly a surprise. What will be interesting is whether Wall Street is investing in China or is flat-footed.

IMHO, I think the better question is what can the US do to keep some of the minerals in their hands. Can you imagine what would happen if the worlds material for computer chips and cell phones was controlled by one country. It could get bad. We need to play catch up on building relationship's with Africa that we should have nurtured decades ago.

Stripped of the pejoratives, the article is correct. We don't give a S what kind of govt/society they have. Daily massacre or love-in that's their business/choice. We're about making money and advancing China in a non-violent, peaceful, cooperative, mutually beneficial way. No one has any legitimate reason to fear us, except our success is a kind of existential threat to some, but that not deliberate nor our fault, nor are we going to change our way just because it exposes the weakness of those "some". Better they should learn from our success, and do a little emulating, and forget all the useless slagging off

Daily Horoscope for November 22

Virgo

You may find yourself feeling rather jumpy today as the Moon spars with erratic Uranus; you might want to keep your radio on the easy listening station today. Sure, punk rock and heavy metal might relax some of you, but you'll find even the most hard-core Virgin needs to indulge in some peace and quiet. Leave the television off and end the day with a favourite beverage and an interesting book.
