Stuff about china is really frightening because at any moment they could call the U.S. On the massive debt that we owe them and stop exporting and then where would we be?

This actually was a very stupid move by the U.S. because China controls the U.S. economy.
If they decide that they want to stop buying the debt, or wanted their money back the U.S. economy would crumble within a few short months.
This however is of course the entire point for this move. Obama wants to make the U.S. a 3rd world country in order to usher in the New World Order after third world war has happened, which will be sometime in February.

This is complete and utter bs actually.
China does not "own America", and you could never prove it because it's not true.
The international banks own America and own China. Both nations are under the thumb of them.
Please look it up. The media got you saying that stuff, even though its extremely misleading.
It's like a European can do business in China and you will start calling him "Chinese" or something.
Remember, the entire world poured trillions of dollars in investment into China in the last 30years.
They used to be isolated and poor and there was hardly any industry or wealth before Nixon went...

I read through this whole thread and didn't see one single mention of what would really happen if the US stopped doing business with China.
You think we'd just magically create jobs overnight? Remake thousands of factories for companies that have had it so good for so long in other countries?
That's ridiculous.
China has the US right where it wants them, no matter what you guys dream will happen. If they were to stop dealing with us, they'd sell their stuff to someone else. They have the manufacturing, they have the ability. We do not.
It's a joke to think we can just "stop" buying chinese...it's like having a hardcore meth addict stop cold turkey...it will basically destroy them, although they might end well enough, the destruction will be enough to end us.
Anything but the US's destruction is a pipe dream, simple as that. Our debt is ridiculous and unpayable, our military is bloated, our people are weak. This is the reality of our situation, anything else is just denial.

throwing it out there with out much fact to back it up, but surely if America cut off import from China wouldn't that create much needed jobs and growth in the US because they would have to start producing things themselves? and in turn, couldn't the US then start exporting some of the things it made? i have a limited knowledge of the relationship between the US and China in regards to imports/exports and the impact of the relationship, so bear that in mind before everybody flames me. just an idea.
