| It comes down to money or peace. Peace or money. Is the downgrade worth the price of peace. Or is maintaing status quo worth the price of paying for war against yourselves. |

| Regardless of the failures of logic in this article, following its suggestions would break China"s agreement to the World Trade Organization and be disastrous to the global economy, resulting in more damage to China itself than any other country. |

| The author is not credible. His views are naive and only serve to stir the uneducated. If I owe the bank $10 and cannot repay, I have a problem. If I owe the bank $1 billion and cannot repay, the bank has a problem. |

Many decades ago, China sold sovereign bonds worldwide to investors in many nations. They sold tens of thousands of these bonds on U.S. soil to American citizens on the recommendation of our government, indicating it was a solid investment.
Over the last sixty years, China has refused to pay to these bondholders either the principal or interest on these full faith and credit sovereign bonds.
Where is China"s commitment to it"s debts? |

| How about China repays all of the debt it owes to US citizens through shady bond deals that it has refused to pay interest or earnings on? |

| All US would have to do is to initiate an import tax on China goods and use the money to pay the debt. This in turn would make US mfg. goods more competitive in the global market and increase employment in the US. |

| The US does not want to be in debt to China and a war with China would free it of its huge debt . Its very likely that they will make trouble so that they stay as number one. Be patient and arm Iran who is on their hit list. |

| Please stop being nationalistic. The americans are itching for a global fight. They are tired of these cat and mouse insurgent wars. They would love a global conflict with China now because they would win and completely reverse China's gains in the last two decades.It's best for China to let the US throw it's weight around now, and then in 30 years, it will be a different game. |

| The problem is that you are already at war (economically) with the U.S and you don't know it yet.The next big conflict will be between China and U.S.Your old russian carrier will be at the bottom of the sea in no time.You will need at least another 50-60 years to start thinking challenging the US fleet in the South China Sea or in the Pacific. |

| i wonder why we bought so many american treasury bonds. we are miseralbe, on the one hand we lent money to the u s, on the other hand we are being bullied by the u s. instead to say that american is arogant, i would rather to say that we are too humble. don't let others look down to us anymore. |

| You bet your govt. will do that?? they don"t do things for nothing. They"re buying treasury debts so as to enable americans import your goods thereby oiling your export machine. Try to dump those T-bills and see what happens to your export economy. |
