Hello Kiddies,
Well it's true, FEMA bunkers are being built around the country. These bunkers are not the civil Defense shelters of the past, they have the means to keep many people alive for an extended period of time. Did you get your code to enter one? When the dust clears, funny, neither did I.
This is really about the Chinese and the massive debt we owe them. I don't think bankruptcy is a viable solution with them. If they call our note we are fucked, what do we have as collateral, we went off the gold standard MANY years ago. In fact I wager they would be willing to to war over this "most problems come about for 1 of 2 reasons, Romance or Finance". What would happen, well the dollar would immediately drop in value, wide spread panic and mob mentality.
Just a few Neutron bombs, in a few key locations in the US, and it would literally cripple us, within moments.
Sadly we have put ourselves in this position, we sell arms to friendly dictators and information leaks to others. Then there is the outright corporate espionage. I know this happens for a fact, a company I worked for shipped a piece of heavy industrial equipment to China. After a month they returned it, reason not given. Six months passed and they asked for a technical consultant as they were having problems with another piece of equipment the purchased and kept.
Upon entry the Engineer immediately noticed something, an exact replica "reverse engineered" of the 5million dollar piece of equipment , they reneged payment on. They showed him to that machine, the escort said here this is it, the engineer said this one? Yes was the reply followed by a swift FIX! The engineer immediately found the defect , they had stuck a reversed gearing unit on the equipment, an easy fix, if you had blueprints or the original sample we had shipped to them. As he left for lunch, without touching the equipment "that's how obvious the mis-engineered part stood out" he reported back to the office with what he saw, they told him to get on the next flight home.
The Chinese are very smart and sneaky, yes they have us by the short and curlies in a vise but we need a better solution than War...Nobody can win.
AMF...
