    It was a little thing called WW2, "bush Lawyer".

    A big land mass is not the same as hard to conquer.

    You fought WW2 at the British empires request.

    Your concern should be how long until you are the "english" contingent of China's military.

    The Chinese don't need to use military force because they already OWN America via our debt.

    Not the same thing at all with Australia. However the Chinese don't need to use military force their either. They can just stop importing and watch as 30% of the Australian export market collapses and the economy tanks.

    But the Chinese are WAY smarter and way ahead of everyone else.

    By forming BRICS they have an ALTERNATIVE to the US dominated market AND a lock on the FUTURE world market as both America and the EU nations struggle with their aging Boomer populations for the next couple of decades.

    The BRICS nations have younger populations that are emerging as the markets where all the GROWTH will be taking place.

    We Americans will be struggling to support both our Boomers AND the Military-Industrial-Complex at the same time that we are up to our EYEBALLS in DEBT to nations like China.

    Yes, there was, and at no time I am aware of did the USA ever assist the Russians beat Germany back.

    A big Island landmass like Australia has never been invaded in modern military times. Attacked by Japan yes. Darwin bombed, even Sydney shelled by a Jap Sub....and some more stuff. The Japs never managed to Pearl Harbour us and it would have been pretty nifty if they managed to pull it off given geography. They had no interest in us anyway, until later in the War.

    No.......Robert Menzies, the Aussie PM at the time, got all horny and said:



    Pompous rambling twit, yes. (Conservative by the way.)



    My more real-life concern is that China is buying us out anyway. The latest:

    https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-11-15/bellamys-baby-formula-chinese-takeover-approved/11707190

    China already has a pretty large commercial investment in Australia, and if it keeps it at that, within limits I reckon are already stretched, I'll cop it.

    Wrong, yet again!

    I am a REALIST who watches TRENDS because they are a means to UNDERSTAND long term market changes.

    One of my stock picks was less than a dollar a share when I purchased $1000 worth of shares in 1999. In 2014 a Fortune 100 corporation took it over and cashed out my shares at $17,500.

    You can only do that kind of long term investment if you understand trends.

    With Indonesia on our doorstep you think our major worry is China?

    We have been wheeling and dealing around SE Asia for some years now to solidify alliances outside of America.

    Trumps foreign policy of pissing off everyone butPutin and lil Kim has made America more vulneporable than it has ever been before

    yep, that descriptive fits every prez since the beginning of time, the only differences are that some spoke softly and coddled their peeps with words that disguised what they were really doing...
    yep, so many are so blind

    Not if Indonesia buys us first:p

    One of those alliances we are forming is with India. China might find buying us a little harder than they thought

    We made cigarettes pay for the healthcare smokers needed

    A heaping tablespoon of honey and one gram of Vitamin B-1 (Thiamine) at the end of the evening can do wonders for hangovers the next day. But, moderation is better than anything else.

    If I were Donald Trump, I might be persuaded to go to Walter Reed to figure out why the hell I'm so dead-set on crushing interest rates down to ZERO, or below. In an economy as robust as ours has been for the past three years, with unemployment at record-low levels and labor-force participation increasing again, it is beyond STOOPID that he would be constantly raving about wanting the Fed to crush interest rates in the United States again....

    Aside: Japan and the European Central Bank have negative interest rates, and look at what a mess Japan and Europe are! Is there some new mental disease that's sweeping the planet...and did Trump catch it, too...?

    They are isolating you and Australia is currently very concerned about it. It's one of the very reasons why Australia has reached out to President Trump and stepped up military exercises and training, including the purchase of new equipment.

    BTW, Obama ignored most of these requests.

    This also worked wonders, especially if taken after dinner and before a night out drinking with hard charging sailors:

    Also as a wake up remedy.

    Obama knew there were more ways to win a war than playing war games

    Meanwhile the TPP which would have stymied Chine was dumped by guess who?

    Nothing is going to stymie China and the TPP actually aided them. You should actually read it and know the subject you are discussing. Obama didn't know much and this is another area that proved he was completely inept.

    Trump's trade war has had more of an effect on China than anything else. They now have less money to throw around and to buy up ports and resources in foreign countries. They rely on the US for a massive income stream and if that dries up, then they are in serious economic trouble. Trump and China both know this. So while China is not stymied, they have been slowed down, considerably.

    He appears a little less steady on his feet lately. Maybe his back hurts him.

    Yes. And this is why. Walter Reed Hospital is the official location for his exams. And he was there for 2 hours and it included him visiting Vets recovering as well. He was not admitted. He simply had a brief examination.

    Well given the paranoia over climate, that certainly can be understood. But do not worry since you would not be a target ever.

    Why does he eat junk food? Geez. A guy with as much money as he has could have really tasty healthy meals and snacks as the only food he sees.
