This could go so many ways, but one thing is for certain. The United States loses in every scenario.
Maybe the best thing that could happen is a soft landing, that results in us JUST us being a economic subservant to the Chicoms. I think that is the 60-70% bet at this point, just so they can peacefully suck the rest of the life out of our economic base. With this way, they can avoid their own
The worst would be either war, or economic collapse by either hyperinflation, or a '30's like meltdown. Hopefully some Briefers will realize that putting yourself in $32T in debt, and having said debt constitute 150% of national GDP will have consequences at some point. Consequences for us will be that in a currency realignment our poor fiscal stating against free and floating currency will make our worth less, maybe even much much less. That will weaken us in every aspect.
Markets and their futures numbers are shrugging this off at this point. For some reason they seem to crazily think we are invincible economically on the world stage. Idiots. They are more concerned with the short term and what the Fed does. But just wait to a day soon, when our buying power maybe drops by 75-90% on the world's stage of buying goods and services.
