pretty stupid.. the US will be crippled with super expensive alternatives and wooden wagons... while the rest of the developing world will be streaking ahead and consuming raw materials at a rate of knots.. become the industrial and financial pilalrs of the world...
and the USA will be entered into history as a footnote.. not unlike the romans, babylonians, egyptions and greeks
p.s. not to forget that all the food corn farmed int he US will go to fuel those GM cars that China will be buying - the ones the collapsed US public sector economy will no longer be ale to afford
And the money China will be using to pay for all this? Debt payments made by the US to service all the loans China will be holding hehe
Talk of a turn of events ...
