China is doing what the old Soviet Union did - They are engaging in hegemonistic behavior on the world stage in order to keep its population repressed. They will build a mighty military, and foment all these proxy wars, like the old Soviet Union did. The sad part is that their population will suffer because of this behavior, but they will not be allowed to speak against it.

I see the possible conflict between China and the U.S. as somewhat similar to the war between Athens and Sparta, which was so devastating for Greek culture. It is sheer folly, and the whole world could suffer from it. China was on the right path allowing free interprise to grow their economy. They were looking at great prosperity that would improve the lives of everyone in their country. They are turning towards a dreary, militaristic path which will stultify their economy.
I generally avoid talking politics, let’s just say I don’t like where this world is headed at the moment.
