[quote:Anonymous Coward 32642408:MV8yMTE2NjQ0XzM1NjkzOTQxX0U2MTc0MjdG] [quote:DoorBert:MV8yMTE2NjQ0XzM1NjkyMzUzX0E0MjlGMEEx] [b]CHINA POISED TO PLAY DEBT CARD – FOR U.S. LAND[/b] NEW YORK – Could real estate on American soil owned by China be set up as “development zones” in which the communist nation could establish Chinese-owned businesses and bring in its citizens to the U.S. to work? That’s part of an evolving proposal Beijing has been developing quietly since 2009 to convert more than $1 trillion of U.S debt it owns into equity.

First, if China is still holding any US debt it will become worthless. All those t-bonds will be voided. Secondly, all US assets in China and all Chinese assets in the US will be confiscated. Financially, the best thing that could happen to the US would be a war with China. It would hurt bad for a couple of years until all that production capacity could be resored (some of it back here in the US). Afterwards, China would be turned into a big turd with nobody to peddle it's wares to except SOME of the other BRICs. [/quote]
