If China is controlling what's left of the economy...

China has kept their money under valued playing everyone else as suckers. But India is coming on strong and starting to breath down China's neck. They have cheap labor too.

There is a story today that Disney fired 250 IT workers as Disney World and made them train their replacements form India. They were brought in on visas for skilled workers in areas where is a "shortage" of skilled workers. This program is a total abuse used by big employers.

Americans are not as suspicious of Indians as they are mainland Chinese.










I don't know everything. Neither does anyone else

It is totally abused. Tax write offs and loopholes make it much cheaper to bring In workers than hire domestically. Only on paper is there a 'balance'. A scam and fraud by American companies.

It suggests that the US is still economically active and a free country. People don't trust currency from authoritarian regimes, they might turn round and say elements of the currency are cancelled (I mean literally it does happen) - also regulation of the currency, it's a closed currency I think in China
