China s COVID Coup : American Greatness

So far, the Biden Administration s desire to discuss climate change with China must rank as one of the most absurdly esoteric foreign policy considerations in living memory, as well as a godsend to the People s Republic. They think the concept is bunk and could not be more delighted at the economic penalties the West is imposing upon itself in trying to move to what is mistakenly described as sustainable energy. 

 Fundamentally, the United States is a much stronger country than China and, if it comes to its senses quickly enough, it will more than meet this challenge. China has a dangerously aging population, no institutions of any integrity or value whatsoever, and a system that is still 40 percent a command economy. Every day, the Chinese betray the arrogance of their official nature. If the West wakes up soon enough, the Chinese challenge will be much easier to meet than was Nazi Germany or even the Soviet Union. 

Unfortunately, the closest we have to recognizably intelligent thinking on the subject within the administration has as its end, finally, to drive Russia into the arms of China. Russia s only real threat to the United States is if it enables China to use its surplus population to develop Siberia and make up for China s own lack of natural resources. Innocuous massaging of Russia s bruised post-Cold War ego, as long as it does not become too indulgent of Russia s own expansionist ambitions, could be useful. We want Russia as a Western and not an Eastern country and the erosion of the Democrats Russo-hysteria is the first good sign we have seen from the Biden State Department.
