  1. to people have the idea of china, china was 200.000 riots a year because of food shortages, unemplyment etc… polution censorship aids etc, and they are growing and sucking worlds resources usa style, imagine if they reach the top? one day and it will happen because resources are limited like food etc they will have a much stronger much arrogant in debt gov inc oupler years that will lead to war, so before u get all worked up about moving to china loo at the numbers even ch industry outsourcing

  2. the companies western ones will not pay to satyn in china far away from the buyers, and paying more less like they pay in southern europe south america even usa in couple years, asian market is too needy of resources but dosent produce products like major western companies the quality is worse, this is a fact i dont like a to buy chinese even when quality seems good because they dont have experience building and dont obey safety rules or care about toxicity safety, if thery did their eco went d

  3. china is too heavy too many people even nopw with most industry on planet there they have 500 million people with 1 dollar a day!!! 800 million ppl living from agriculture and still they need food from abroad, they are too heavy if they make their growht longer is because of speculation like giant chinese speculation, asia grows while eu usa buys, say it again china is the weakest link, brazil is much better, slavery work dosent last forever, they grow they have to pay more, coin gets stronger

  4. i would like to anyone including these economic mongols to tell me diff, vietnam and cambodia laos are much better then china, because they have more resources,cheap coin less people to feed… austrtalia is better brazil is on the top, brazil was it all including biggest oil reserves of the planet, remember the industry that gives jobs to china also give jobs to eu usa, and they will leave china to other countrys like chinese companies, even africa be better like angola mozambique tell me wrong

  5. you ppl are really dumb, saying china is the next superpower ikslike saying portugal would be the same just because the industry would move here and give jobs, the industry dosent belong to china, they are moving industrys rthey are there now and will not be next, real chinese industry produces crap or immitations, while having 1.2 billion ppl even if they had every industry there they would still be under developted country they have little resources, when yuan goes up their growht will go down

  6. @Alsterwasser dats true

  7. @kukurukuru21 just like an old bitter white boy

  8. The USA really got taken in the last election. Well, actually the last 8-10 presidential elections. I wonder when, if ever, Americans will come to realize that politics only causes problems, it can never solve them.

  9. @TheSamithinker Thailand or Vietnam

  10. We don’t want you in Asia !!!

    Stay in America

  11. @Dandaniels1978 yes spot on. I am actually willing to relocate to Asia. I am married so I’m just trying to convince the wify to give up Europe. She thinks Asia is an unbearable place to live in…Little does she know! We’re gonna do a tour of Asia this May so I’ll try to convince her to relocate. I have faith in Asia ( numbers show us). I won’t have trouble transferring over. Which country would you recommend Daniel?

  12. @TheSamithinker If you’ve skills in finance and you’re sensitive to the environment around you, if you can spot opportunities before the masses then you have to take the risk. It’s the risk takers who’ll succeed in life. I should know I’m half Britsh, half Israeli, last year I was introduced to a new company called Better Place and a fantastic new breed of entrepreneur Shai Agassi. You have to see what their plans are to believe it and the deal they’ve done with China.

  13. @TheSamithinker Listen the centre of power has shifted from West to East now, that is where all the money is. I’m out here on the ground and it’s buzzing!! Traditionally India and Asia were the centre of gravity, then the Anglo Saxons dominated but power has changed again. Most people in the West are in denial. Those who’ll survive and thrive are the ones who’ll go find the CHEESE. If you don’t have kids and you’re young then you have to take a chance like I did. Its a fucking adventure :)

  14. @Dandaniels1978 Well it consoles me to learn that people like urself still exist ;) I salute your intelligence and decision to move to the far east & use the good days to save and invest. Many others did not! You’re in the commodities business so you know how important that is…it is THE future!I’m trying to get the heck out of Europe and move to Asia as well but Wify is stubborn :( I’m also gonna give Brazil a shot

  15. @TheSamithinker You’re a 100% correct that the UK is also fucked especially after listening to the Spending Review yesterday. Fortunatley I am safe buddy, I made wise investments wity my life, I moved to the Far East a few years ago after I studied agriculture and now work as a commodity trader working for HSBC, as you can imagine business is booming. My investments have made average returns of 27% over the last 3 years. If I were you I would listen to people like Jim Rogers.

  16. Guys let’s be realistic, Westerners have been feeding off the poor Chinese,Africans, other Asians, Mexicans etc…Why do you think you can just get paid $20 an hour, and be able to buy an ipod for $100 ( or 5 hours of work) whereas some chinese is getting paid 75 cents an hour …So to put into perspective, it will take him 133 hrs.
    You see why we’re so screwed now? we loved credit and borrowing money to show people how rich we are when we’re so poor we didn’t know what a savings account was !

  17. @Dandaniels1978: Somehow you guys think you’re safe and not vulnerable at all. I am European/American and live and work in Europe and work for a major bank. Brits think that somehow the queen will sail through and get you to the other side?? are you fucking kidding me?? Uk is the most indebted industrial country after Japan…At least we’ll have trash cans to eat off of :D

  18. @mythic89 a new country which majority are mexicans (teen pregnancy, high school drop-outs, hip hop, violence, make-up, bling-bling). old USA is gone.

  19. @Alsterwasser Yup. USA, even if it will recover won’t be the same because in years to come it would be a land where majority are Mexicans. Racism aside, everybody knows that whites are more progressive, highly intellectual.

  20. @Alsterwasser
    I agree, I noticed Japanese Yen is worth more then USD.

  21. Hm, perhaps I should consider moving, I don’t really want to be around here when the $h!t hits the fan…

  22. @akallstar5 “If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered… The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.”

    Thomas Jefferson

  23. @akallstar5 After the end of the USSR, the Russian economy was in turmoil BECAUSE of the “advice” from the “West”.

    Seriously, the USA are a very young country, and you didn’t have many war on your own soil (with Britain in the early 19th century, and then Civil war). A huge crisis the USA have never experienced, in contrast to most other countries, e. g. European ones. It’s just a historical experience that multi-ethnic states collapse in times of severe crisis.

  24. @akallstar5 It is not just “Russia” who notices that the USA are on the decline, but almost all media in the world (maybe except for Fox News ;-) ). Renowned experts like Celente say this as well. Even Goldman Sachs says this:
    /watch?v=jzl17ZlN3N4
    /watch?v=l5g8tkwgTh8
    The USA have more than 700 military bases around the world, and thus many countries will be happy when those soldiers must go home. But this doesn’t mean that the evaluation of the state of the USA is incorrect.

  25. @akallstar5 Thus, the US-Dollars is NOT on the rise, quite the contrary. It has lost MUCH of its worth in the 21st century, direction: rapidly falling.
    It doesn’t matter if the majority of the US-Americans care about “race”, but the illegal immigrants do. Moreover, they may not consciously “care”, but in reality, there are quarters according to ethnic background, “white flight” etc. etc. And just look what happened in New Orleans after Katrina.
