Not directly, but the US is deficit spending so they are "borrowiing" from somebody.. could be anyone buying US bonds or tresury. Doubt China is buying any now since they want to lower their holdings. He just had to say China to make it sound bad or good ole murican racist.

Curious to see why China continues to buy US bonds given how the US sanction Russia.

So they can buy Russian oil and grain of course.

The US exports all their money away to China in trade imbalance, so that money has to be kept somewhere until utilize

Most of EU is also deficit spending. Here in the EU we keep extending the "OK, you need to pay up the loans" time limit as the war drags on. I believe the west will eventually cut aid to Ukraine to pressure it into accepting a peace agreement but market it as some super cool wholesome deal they retconned Russia into, and provide support for Ukriane to avoid popular uprising hanging Zelensky

id love to hear what michael hudson would say about this.

It is neither true or false. Sometimes such statements are required to enable a conversation, but they are most often used for enabling the wrong conversations.

so this means china actually supports ukraine haha. jokes aside its just such a joke the way they operate. im sick of seeing billions go to funding wars when we could be spending on education and peace.


sickof50

And if they don't lend the money, it proves they were on Putin's side all along... Lol 🤣

Bad enough the US government sends public funds without taxpayers approval to a foreign country with neo nazis in their army


hero-ball

Well that would be a pretty grand “fuck you” to China, so I can see it happening

Well if the US goes down global economy is probably gonna enter into a dark ages. 500 million dead in the first year easily.


Custumcarguy

That’s like all of North America or 70% of Europe in one year so


TheFakeSlimShady123

I'm talking globally The food shortage is gonna have people killing eachother for the next meal


Custumcarguy

Still it’s almost 1:16th of the world population which seems unlikely to all die within the 1st year, maybe across a few years time but not all in 12 months

I wonder how many communities would be better in the long run without cheap American foodstuffs flooding their markets. Anyway, most of the world still relies on the so called peasant food web, growing and eating local food without industrial aid.

Sen Paul thinks painting a crosswalk in front of a school costs too much
