All China has to do is hit the 'SELL' button and our country is toast without a single shot being fired!

I don't see how it's really cheaper to ship our raw materials to China and let them make things and then ship them back here than it would be to make things locally and save mass quantities of oil in shipping costs.

Hi ChrisI agree with Yoshio as Brazil has leaped 10 places into the #2 spot as the international preferance by investors replacing China to the #3 as the countries providing the best opportunity for capital appreciation, according to the International Real Estate Report by NAR.Some of the Latin American countries are doing good currently in this economic downturn.

Thanks to industrial growth in China you can be certain that demand for oil is going to increase even if we become more efficient in our usage of gasoline.3.
