They are not leaving China and moving to Mexico. They manufacture in both countries because they want the Mexico/South America business and the Asian business.
You don't think one or the other , you think both markets and DOMINATE


Obviously we feel differently about the future of China. I expect a monumental collapse like we have never seen before. I would not be surprised that if in 10 years their GDP is less than 50% of what it is today.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.

Really
That type of collapse would put the USA in the depression of all depressions making 1929 look like a tea party
More and more US companies are intertwined with China
I just don't see a collapse since China has weathered massive institutional changes such as the Great leap forward, cultural revolution and the 1 child policy
Why do you think China will collapse?
It's a prediction that's been made for 75 years when China went communism
They are evolving into becoming the biggest customers on the planet. Hence an economic collapse of western economies if China collapses

I also fear that a Chinese economic collapse would lead to political instability that impacts the Far East and the US.

Look at the Chinese federal debt and their population demographic decline. There is no way for them to get out of this mess. They are just too leveraged. their debt is over 250% of their GDP and still growing at an astronomical rate. Their Belt and Road initiative has been spending crazily. Did you know China has more new housing units (houses/condos, etc) that are unoccupied than the total number of housing units in the U.S.? They have been building like crazy just to give people jobs but there is no market for them and those companies are crashing. Over 90 million unoccupied houses.

These are serious issues
China will probably increase their debt by buying the excess real estate to prevent economic collapse
The additional debt will stil be less then US debt

The United States has a national debt of approximately $31.4 trillion, which represents a significant portion of its GDP. The debt-to-GDP ratio for the U.S. is around 129%. China's national debt is over $10 trillion, which is about 68.06% of its GDP.

Calling someone a nazi and fascist shows she has no integrity.


Noted racist and proud MGTOW member Nick Fuentes is at it again. "Your body - my choice", is the new rallying cry of this sick, perverted, child molesting movement.

Today this convergence is exemplified by white nationalist provocateur Nick Fuentes. While Fuentes describes himself as a “proud incel,” his brand of male supremacy closely aligns with MGTOW. He frames his celibacy as a noble choice and has suggested that relationships with women only distract men from the white nationalist cause. Like other MGTOWs, he has also used homophobia and referred to heterosexual relationships as “gay” to reinforce his own sexual identity in the absence of an interest in relationships with women.

I politely ask if you have lived in WNY all your life. I ask for the serious reason of wondering if living in a blue state affects people's predictions. When I was in WNY I did feel in the minority being a conservative. Then I lived in a red state and not so much. Then I moved to a battleground state and it again felt different. Hard to convey this one has to experience it.

I can see liberals in downstate NY saying, "How did she lose? Everyone I knew voted for her!"


Another noted member of the MGTOW movement is the gay, child molesting Milo Yiannopoulos. He has been quoted that sexual relationships between 13 year old boys and adults can be perfectly consensual and positive experiences for such boys.

I think Milo is the epitome of a man "going his own way".

Yep he's totally disappeared off the other forum too. He was there the day before the election crowing about how that Seltzer woman was the gold standard of polling and she was 100% accurate that Heels Up was going to win Iowa by four points. Trump wins in a landslide and Seltzer was off by 18 points and we haven't seen AMS since. I 100% guarantee when he comes back he'll say he was on a cruise somewhere and totally out of touch with what was happening. Or some other 'story' that he cooked up.

We're now on Day 7 of Ams Watch. He's been hiding in the Wordle comments of the other place. 🤣 Can't wait for him to slither his way back here. 😂

I don't want to ruin my youtube algorithm.
Can you let us know what this is
Probably junk but you never know 😉
