That is irrelevant. We're talking about their qualifications to be a co-leader. Not their finances.
whats the qualifications in your eyes of being a leader? attacking countries, and forcing them to do business with you? framing countries for having wmd? assassinating democratically elected leaders? forcefully keeping bases in other peoples countries when they demanded you get out? staging coups?
 
Maybe some day China will be a super power, but not today.

The US does not want to govern the world, just guide it a little.
the us doesnt want to govern the world, only the parts with natural resources.
 
wrong. YOU are trying to manipulate their currency, so you dont have to pay back as much debt. nice try though.
 

this is also typical american tactics.
 
i agree with maximus. you are seriously ignorant and have no knowledge of economics whatsoever. not one of your thoughts is original.
 
I dont even want to mention who has cheated the most in Olympics. :yes: US & Russia.
america is sad and sore losers. i loved how they changed the way they list their medals from most gold medals to total medals.
 

:roll: mate, you need to grow up a bit, whatever america has done, while usually a bit pointless or excessive, is no where near as bad as china treats it's citizens, and if your gonna make claims like that, provide links, makes your argument seem a bit more logical.

it was not a million dead in the iraq war, by no stretch of the imagination.

again, proof of torturing palestinians is needed to make it seem serious

you argue abu ghraib as a case, thats an isolated case

as for the death penalty, china has that too, and they go even further with the one child policy, as well as persecuting religious and ethnic minorities.

the US actions are incomparable to those of China in terms of human rights.


and if you don't mind me asking, what country are you from?
 
meanwhile the sweat shop is probably owned by an american. sweat shops wouldnt even exist if not for americans. america may not execute its prisoners, but it sure doesnt seem to have a problem executing 1 million iraqis, or assist israel in executing palestinians. you may not go to jail for filing your taxes wrong, but if you are a resident of any given country, you can have the privalege of getting kidnapped by the cia, tortured, and imprisoned. if youre a ucla student that refuses to show your id, you might get tazed. if youre a university of florida student, and you speak your mind at a john kerry forum, you might also get tazed.
 

not saying china is perfect, but americans are in no position to talk. youre right, the us actions are incomparable to china. the usa is far worse, but that isnt even the issue. americans lecture people on human rights when they are out slaughtering people and supporting dicatators. it's funny how bin laden and sadam are such terrible people, but what you are ignoring is that america put both these people into power, and supported them. right this moment, america is supporting, and training similar people around the world. china on the other hand doesnt lecture anyone, nor do they claim to be a country of freedom, and justice.
im glad to provide links

I don't think China has the maturity level to govern the world much less themselves. It seems the arrogant commie government throws a tantrum whenever someone does something they don't like. For instance there is a thread here about China revoking a Canadian universities' accreditation because they let the Dalai Llama speak on their campus. The Chinese government is like an arrogant child with a tantrum issue, I predict that China will implode economically.

How does one follow the other?
 

So what? China is just competing like the rest. Dont even be from the US and mention this point, especially considering the US have controlled and manipulated the currency market for at least 50 years.


Nah, I just think its sick that you cry over Chinas way of competing and progressing, and then you have completely forgot how the US manipulated and controlled currency.
 
Why do people keep making polls like this with yes or no as the only options.
 

Lets welcome them to where the US is then...

911 and their reaction. And the US economic collapse.
 
I love American as long as it stays an open society. Appatentlz Russia is more worth loving.
 
come on, the US is trying to push the focus away from their own desperate economic situation.
