So much propaganda, are you sure southamerica that you aren't on the Chinese payroll or something? Sheesh.
This is how I see this popular trend around the world on anti-US sentiment. The US is like a big strong guy. The rest of the world are like weak women. If a guy slaps a woman there is outrage, how can he do such a thing?! But if another woman slaps another women, no one gives a hoot, not a glance. The reasons don't matter, the only thing the rest of the world cares about is that the man slapped the poor helpless woman. This illustrates the relationship between those with power and those without or those who feel superior and those who feel inferior. The anti-US trend is the lashing out of those who feel inferior. Notice I said "feel", it's these feelings that give rise to sentiment.
Besides your HUGE anti-US slant you provide a lot of your figures in percentages. Like China allowed 60% more investment vs. Japan or something like that.
You don't seem to understand the price and time value. You can't directly compare investments from different time periods. And different economies. Like Titantic grossed the most money ever beating Star Wars which made $400million. But that was $400million in the 1980's. You see the problem with pretty much all your figures??? You are comparing Apples to Oranges and at different times.
You also don't seem to go very in-deep with your analysis. You say if China allows the Yuan to float then it wouldn't have much of an effect in the US economy since there is only like a $56 Billion trade deficit. Do you know what things are included in those figures? Do you realize that almost all of that amount is mostly goods and tangilble assets, stuff you can buy at Walmart type things? Just like the US GDP calculations, the formulas are like 60 years old, before anyone imagined the "soft" assets that would dominate the information age. So if China allows the Yuan to float then they become less competitive in a whole array of industries. It would be a snow ball effect of enormous proportions affecting the "soft assets" that are not captured in any reported data. China knows this, they are not idiots.
This is also the reason why the US economy is strong, because it has shifted from the old world economy to the new one where the information and intellectual property is not captured. Companies like Microsoft, Oracle, Accenture, the list goes on, are not really accounted for in the GDP! I don't know why you are talking about new jobs created. You talk about how pathetic it is that only 200K jobs were created in a month. The only thing patetic is your bias on this matter. Why don't you talk about employment rates? I'm pretty sure the US has one of the best employment rates of any country.
I think people around the world love the idea of the US becoming irrelevant. They await that day and will champion anyone that will take their place. That is sad thing to wish and hope for. The US is the greatest nation state in the history of the world. It's so diverse with everyone from all over the world living and working together. It's truely amazing and I don't know why there is so much anti-US sentiment. Basically you are hating your own brothers and sisters that live and work there. Last time I checked the latin american community was 12-15% of the population!
And look at yourself, in all your articles all you do is talk about American companies, like Fortune, Intel, Walmart, etc etc etc.... All your focus and attention are on these US companies. Why if the US is becoming so irrelevant. Why not talk about Chinese companies and STOP talking about US companies like they are the center of the world.
You have hole after hole in all your posts and the fuel that burns the ranting on your part is your anti-US slant.
Let me help you see clearly. With the 3 "super powers" US, China, and Russia. Name one country that China and Russia has gotten involved with that you would consider a success today? North Korea? Vietnam? Cambodia? East Germany? yeaaaaaah, right.
Ok the US isn't perfect but I would consider Japan, West Germany, South Korea (all in the top 10 economies of the world) pretty much successes.
It's so very clear but people just forget. They forget all the horrible atrocities China and Russia have done and write about stupid things in the US, like subway systems getting old and slave labor at prisons (without mentioning that these people do it voluntarily and they learn new skills that they would have to pay for in vocational schools). Why not write about how the Chinese officials executed a bunch of prostitues that slept with Japanese business men last year in South China? What, it doesn't fit in your anti-US / pro-China ranting? If you even did 1/100th the digging you do about the US you would be horrified at what you would find in China. China will be the next super power, it is no doubt a great nation, but it needs a lot of work. If there were no US this would be a scary world with a growing super powerful China.
So maybe you should put your jealousy aside and stop criticizing the US and try contributing to a better world. BTW, I'm writing this from Hong Kong which is under Chinese rule.
