We are seriously and overly dependent on China for so many manufactured goods now its frightening. The US decided long ago to fuck the manufacturing workers here in the ass and go with slave labor in China. Pickup practically anything in your house these days and its says Made in China on it.
On top of slave and prison labor, China manipulates its currency to give it an edge costwise over competing US made goods.
However we are China's biggest customer for trade so that does give us quite a bit of economic clout back at that them.
I think they have the balls to go for it on Taiwan, knowing our military is politically stretched to its limits right now. Maybe a little push to the island even just to test our fortitude and response.
This is a very dangerous situation.
