    Its also just like not economically viable. America too. Europe and America are extremely financialized economies. They don’t produce anything of value. They can coast of what they have for awhile, but eventually stuff is gonna start breaking and people are gonna want new toasters, microwaves, washing machines, fridges, cars, computers, phones, bla bla bla. What happens then? Those things don’t grow on trees. Those things get made, in factories, in China.

      Yeah I would think that trying to cut themselves off from China to side with the US would just be a fast track to societal breakdown and revolution, communist or otherwise.

        Exactly its basically a game of chicken. America is trying to make China give in fast because the longer this goes on the worse it is for America. So they want the Euros to help put pressure on them. Thing is China knows this and is ready to wait out their tantrum. Americas gonna lose big time.
