But does the Chinese giant have feet of clay? In a recently published book, Why Nations Fail, economists Daron Acemoglu and James A. Robinson characterize China’s ruling elites as “extractive”—parasitic and corrupt—and predict that Chinese economic growth will soon falter and decline, while America’s “inclusive” governing institutions have taken us from strength to strength. They argue that a country governed as a one-party state, without the free media or checks and balances of our own democratic system, cannot long prosper in the modern world. The glowing tributes this book has received from a vast array of America’s most prominent public intellectuals, including six Nobel laureates in economics, testifies to the widespread popularity of this optimistic message.

Yet do the facts about China and America really warrant this conclusion?

why america cant build high speed railway infrastructure?
easy! hey gave their dollar to the Khazar banker Rothschild and Warburgs etc, to use to harvest interest charges from the american people by the ton and bushel. by giving away the dollar, every one the american government spends accrues interest to the bankers free of charge to them..which they use to buy the entire political system and the whole dam country

the interest accrues as NATIONAL DEBT AND IT GROWS SO HUGE very quickly that it becomes vast a problem or political economy, as well it should.

but what it effectively does is to shut down infrastructure construction and expansion and to maintain such infrastructure, for the nation so limited by corrupt national usury

it becomes too much interest to pay and it sits on the nation like a fat man sitting on a skinny one preventing him from moving. he can eat to remain skinny, breathe etc..but that is all he can do while he pays the already accrued interest.

government spending becomes ill..no money can be spent, not even a dollar that does cost the people the rate of interest of the day...their own goddam money which the government by law is supposed to spend freely on the interests of the people


that's the USA! it sits there dying, strangled by its national debt and the people who imposed it on the nation. and only the people can do anything about it..IF THEY KNEW AND UNDERSTOOD WHATS ACTUALLY GOING ON.

the political class that run the country, the government bureaucracy, the media,and ALL THE POLICE POWER..THE CIA, FBI, MILITARY ALL THE CITY POLICE FORCES...ALL ARE LONG BOUGHT OUT, CORRUPTED, CONTROLLED, AND USED AGAINST ALL THOSE WHO TRY TO FIGHT THAT SYSTEM

that salient financial fact, is the single most destructive causative fact of american social, existential decline in the world. and those who have achieved such control of the USA..the Khazar Zog.. don't care. in this way they use america as they see fit, as their force, power and battering ram, to effect their plans for the world domination

LanceKraigg’s time is up. He has never truly moved on as a player. Despite being captain and senior batsmen we will lose nothing with investing in a rookie.

He has given his service as an honest and wholehearted performer and would leave with my heartfelt thanks for his contribution.
