ディストピア民主主義: 米国人だけが投票権を持つ地球皇帝によって統治された世界
Dystopia democracy: a world ruled by a global emperor with only Americans having the voting rightAbstract:"China Is a Paper Dragon", David Frum, speech writer for George W. Bush, recently wrote. I agree with him on a few points, and point out further:1. China is a Hedgehog, not a Wolf Warrior as it claims to be.2. China is more of a Bogeyman than a Paper Dragon, since it is specially created by US to scare and mislead.3. Frum inadvertently confessed that US trade deficit is good to US while US politicians have always made a big deal out of it, using it as a bargain chip to drive home more gains.4. With daily easy language, I explained that the duet of chronic US trade deficit and the over-issuing of US$ as de-facto global currency is a blood-sucking from the world economy. This gives US a huge competitive edge over all other countries.5. The long term effects of this blood-sucking is extremely worrisome. Backed up by the stolen wealth, the American military spending is already more than the combined sum of the next 12 countries and expanding faster. The current accumulative US trade deficit now stands at US$ 10 trillions, as US's budget deficit increases year over year, its accumulated trade deficit is destined to climb up US$ 20, 30, 40 trillions...in successively shorter time spans, hence the speeding-up of already huge blood-sucking. In this process, the dollar flood will flow out to the world, its percentage in the total money of the world grows, so US$'s position as global currency strengthens, will it someday displace all other currencies, so Bank of America become the central bank of the Earth? Furthermore, whether a positive feedback loop system has been formed so that the US advantages over the world is self-amplifying and at the expense of other countries?6. The real global threat is looming with many symptoms. We are on track to a dystopia democracy ruled by a global emperor (like Trump) with only Americans having the voting rights and where every country has to be submissive to the US empire which has done many evils in the past. The world's helplessness to the recent over-issuing of US$ as de-facto global currency, the rescinding of the Iran nuclear deal and the illegal sanction on Iran by US are such examples. And because of the positive feedback loop, the situation will only get worse.To avoid the dystopia, the world excluding US, needs to cut down its trade surplus with US, revamp the unfair global trade system, cooperate to distribute the world power in finance, science and hi-tech, media sectors instead of pivoting on US axis (Global Power Distribution Strategy, Shifting Supply Chains in Advanced Sectors away from US).1. "China is a paper dragon"In which (ref. 1) Frum wrote:"China may well surpass the United States as the largest economy on Earth by the 2030s. China was also almost certainly the largest economy on Earth in the 1830s. A big GDP did not make China a superpower then—and it will not make China a superpower now"."Repression is expensive".Actually I reached similar conclusion from different angle(ref. 3):"While Russia's economy is a lot smaller than Japan's, which in turn is smaller than China, its military power and influence is bigger than China's", "There is no direct correlation between the military power of a country and its GDP".2. "Wolf Warrior" sounds scary, in reality China is more like a Hedgehog.China boasts "Wolf Warrior" diplomacy in its propaganda. But to me, it's more like a Hedgehog diplomacy.A wolf hunts for prey around, is proactive, and its threat is global and fatal. A hedgehog is reactive and its threat is local and non-fatal. China's behavior is characteristic of a hedgehog.Recently, US enrolled a number of western powers to send their naval fleets to China's periphery for a show of force, see, that's how wolves behave. In the past, UK grabbed Malvinas Islands from Argentina located more than 10,000 miles away from UK, Russia grabbed (maybe the wrong word, since the ownership is a complicated issue) Crimea, US has bombed around the global and killed millions, what has China done so far for it to deserve the name wolf warrior? China pales so much against these countries.Even India, a poor and under-developed country, is more aggressive and belligerent than China, for instances, the breakup of Pakistan, the annexation of Sikkim, the intervention in Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bangladesh, and multiple times of aggressions and bullyings of Pakistan. India's war with China is interesting. The Indians started the war, since China was significantly weaker than today and Indians thought this might be an opportunity to bully China a bit, like it had done with the other weak neighbors. But when China fought back, Indians failed unexpectedly and humiliatingly with a loss (deaths plus the captured) ratio as bad as 10 to 1.You may have wondered, why many small and weak countries bordered with China, for instance, Cambodia, Myanmar, Laos, Kazakhstan..., do not feel threatened by China, but a far away country like Australia fears its national security threatened by China?Answer: China is both a hedgehog and a bogeyman. Cambodia does not buy the China threat propaganda by US, so a nearby hedgehog is no threat. Australia, with its media and politics largely under US control, would believes China is a threat even if China were as far away as on a different planet. (ref. 17)3. The motivation for US to make China a bogeymanGeopolitics theorem:the more confrontational the global security situation is, the more exploitation US can collect from its allies and the rest of the world.Nothing can be more effective than bogeyman to persuade countries to submit to a hegemony and dominator.For example, the protection fees from its "Allies" and the extremely profitable weaponry sales to its allies. Japan falls into this category. Mongolia, a country surrounded by the two bogeymen of US: China and Russia, is a counter example who does not buy US's bogeyman theory, and has saved enormously on both protection fee and arms purchasing from US.Additionally, US also uses the promise of protection as a bargain chip to gain additional concession and benefits, for examples, to crack open critical and sensitive markets, such as financial, news media etc., and to drive competitors' companies out of the markets of the countries, thus giving US companies lucrative monopoly. These will be discussed later in more detail.Bogeyman is also a smoke to cover up US's own bad deeds. US has killed ~6 millions people (ref. 9, 11, 13), mostly Muslims, since 9/11/2001, hyping up the China Uyghur genocide story (ref. 8, 10, 12, 14) certainly is a good distract.Why China? China happens to have the second largest GDP and it is approaching US, this is really worrisome for lots of Americans.To cover the entire global geopolitics, US need two bogeymen. Russia, which happens to be the 2nd military power of the world, got the ticket for another bogeyman.US tries to paint Russia and China as some kind of evil, if US were not creating bogeymen for its own selfish agenda, but were such an angel country fighting for international justice, then how to explain the hypocrisy and cheating of US with regard to Saddam? US first supplied forbidden chemical weapons to Saddam during Iraq-Iran war (ref. 15, 29, 30), later US cited the owning of chemical weapons and genocide as the excuse to invade, both were faked. Also, what has US done, when UK grabbed Malvinas from Argentina, or when Israel has been grabbing Palestine land and killing its people, or when the Prince of Saudi Arabia dismembered Khashoggi?US has the capability to create two bogeymen, since it has the most powerful propaganda machine in the world, it has gained a significant control in the media of 2nd tier world powers. The success story of US's disinformation campaign on Saddam of Iraq is a demonstration of its capability, where US used a tube of detergent powder to establish Saddam as having WMD and used concocted evidences (ref. 15) to establish Saddam as genocide criminal. No other country can do that.The complete story of the frame-up against Saddam is even dirtier. US first supplied Saddam with chemical weapons for it to be used against Iran (ref. 29). This supply is a crime by itself, forbidden by International convention. Saddam then used it up in the war with Iran. But since Saddam was on US's side then, Americans turned a blind eye to it. During the public opinion manipulation before invading into Iraq, US believed Saddam still had it, so Powell used a tube of laundry detergent as the evidence of Saddam owning WMD.While Americans are advocating the threat that China wants to dominate the whole world, US itself is the news media, the SNS, the law maker, the judge, the police, the banking system, and many more controlling elements of the world, and it is strengthening its grip on every day of every year.For example, US's illegal sanction on Iran, denies every people on earth the right to buy cheaper oil from Iran and deny the Iranian people the rights to get food and medicines for basic living from the world. This illegal sanction has also sent a business woman to custody in Canada (ref. 27, 28), to be extradited to US, for some transactions with Iranians carried out in Hong Kong. This long arm jurisdiction is such a serious threat and harm to the global community! Bogeymen tactic helps US to hide its advantages and intention so that it can boil the world like a frog in warm water.4. The US is the creator of the bogeyman, the misleader of the fake China threat theory, not the one who got misled.US indeed has done a great deal to hype up the China threat theory, i.e. making China a bogeyman.American politicians, such as Steve Bannon, have been traveling around the world, to spread a doctrine that China wants to make the whole world its tributary states, while US's military spending exceeds the combined sum of the next 12 countries and has numerous military bases around the world.US has used Meng Wanzhou incident to have successfully turned China into an adversary of Canada.US is using border dispute to turn, or to have turned Japan, Philippine, India into adversaries of China.US has used its strong media and political presence in Australia, to have turned Australia into adversary of China even though it's hard to conceive how China, a hedgehog far away from Australia, can pose a national security threat to Australia.US has successfully enrolled German and France, at the other side of the earth, to join naval expeditions to South China Sea with a few other countries. This will in turn sour the relationship between China and these countries, as calculated by US.US has been using disinformation to smear China in all possible ways: The bloomberg.com has concocted a fake China spy chip story (ref. 4, 5, 6, 7) to demonize China and Chinese companies in general, while America is notorious for eavesdropping (the Prism project etc.) (ref. 26) on other countries, including its allies. US has also been trying to demonize China with a fake Uighur genocide crime (ref. 8, 10, 12, 13, 14). But please note these: US itself is almost regarded the common enemy of the Islam, it has killed about 6 millions lives (ref. 9, 11), mostly innocent Muslims in the name of anit-terrorism, a 1000 times revenge for the deaths in 911. US had supported Bin Laden, the culprit for 911, but now it is again supporting a group of Uighur (Islamic) terrorists. CNN article (ref. 16) says: "China claims almost all of the 1.3 million-square-mile South China Sea as its sovereign territory", See, this is a textbook example of constant smearing on China, hypocrisy and double standard, using distortion and exaggeration. By that logic, many more countries would be blamed too, e.g., we can then say US claims more than half of pacific ocean as its territory (hint: the location of Guam)?I have to say Americans are really smart and mighty, they wrote the script, every countries (including China and Russia) have played out its role accordingly so far. All the scripted events lead to the gain of US national interests at the expense of both China/Russia and the other parties (US's Allies) in the script, the whole world is played by US, this will be discussed later. 5. The duet of chronic US trade deficit and the over-issuing of US$ as de-facto global currency is a blood-sucking from the world economy, and the amount sucked is huge!U.S. has chronic trade deficit with the world for some 30 years, at ~US$500 billions per year, with the accumulated amount well above $10,000 billions.International trade should be a fair exchange in that you take as much as you give, so you import equal value of things as the value of things you export, or if you import more than you export, you have to give out something of real value to compensate, not a kiting cheque that has no practical value and even its potential value is constantly declining with inflation.A trade deficit means the import value exceeds the export value, so there is a net inflow of things (goods and services), i.e. you take more than you give. If country A has a trade deficit with country B, then we say country B has a trade surplus with country A, that's two sides of a coin. The trade deficit is compensated by money given by A to B. This money value is actually a logging of IOY (I owe you, in another word, debt) in the anticipation that in later time country A will export more to B than it imports from B, so the previous IOY will be canceled out or reduced. This is the normal and fair trade.International trade is a game of give and take, all countries would like to give less and take more, you can achieve this by two ways of cheating (it's also stealing): Letting your IOY to increase forever. if your IOY can increase forever, then you are not returning back. It is like a leech sucking blood continuously from its parasite host. Printing lots of new money and dispatching it to your citizens by social welfare or tax reduction etc., this is very easy and has virtually no cost. But it will cause inflation, the real value of money is then reduced, so the real worth of your country's IOYs to other countries will be reduced. For example, if the inflation rate is 50%, then you only need to export half as many goods and services to pay back your IOY.US used both ways of cheating. The reason why US can do this is because US$ is the mostly used money in international trade, it's a de facto global currency. Since US control the issuing of US$, it can keep pumping put new US$ continuously, keep importing foreign things continuously, never run out money, so US's IOY to the world can increase forever to infinity. And during this process, inflation naturally occurs, US has accomplished both ways of the cheating (stealing).The huge amount of IOY to the world by US is just like a huge kiting cheque, it now stands at ~US$10 trillions. To pay back this would require US to have a trade surplus at US$50 billions per year for 20 years, which is apparently never going to happen. So this is roughly the total wealth stolen from the world by US. To give you an idea of how much value US$10 trillions has, I give you a few examples. It can let you hire 5 millions top scientists at the salary of US$100K per year (for one year deficit) for 20 years (for total deficit), it can buy 1000 super aircraft carriers at US$10 billions each, or it can buy 100,000 F35 stealthy fighters at the price of US$100 millions each. So, you see that's a reason why US is so powerful and wealthy.Americans not only use kiting cheques to buy goods and services, they also use kiting check to buy or gain control of foreign business, including some very sensitive business, such as the media. Money has different meanings for Americans, it's something that comes out of a printing machine, than for the rest of world, where it is a saving from earning as a return on hard work, and is backed up by real wealth produced by your people. Any country whose foreign currency reserve is not tight should consider putting restrictions on US investment.As US issues more new money at ever increasing speed, global inflation is inevitable. All countries in the world will be stole from by US, no country can be immune. This is because all countries have US$ in its foreign exchange reserve. The more US$ you have, the more loss you will suffer.Because of the blood-sucking from blood-donor countries, US gained huge competitive edge relative to all, including developed countries, mostly US's Allies, even though those are themselves not sucked much by US, because Americans can have more fund (If US prints more money, the inflation burden is distributed across the whole world, if your country prints money irresponsibly, the inflation is on your own.) to out-bid against any one for the best things on earth, whether it be company, technology or talents, and then use monopoly to achieve winner-take-all. The world is screwed by US because it's in a system designed by US. These are then turned into a huge power gap over the rest of the world. US makes use of the power gap to its full advantage, so US does not only bully third world countries, it also bully developed countries, such as Japan, Germany, etc. to maximize US national interests at the expense of its Allies' national interests. There has formed a positive feed-back loop mechanism for US advantages, so it is self-amplifying and the trend can hardly be stopped. This will be talked about later.US is already bankrupt, it can't pay back its current huge debt (I mean the total of US$ owned by the world excluding US) with real wealth, the world should not accept any more new US$ from US, in other words, no more trade surplus with US, every new US$ is a new debt, and should limit or block new foreign investment from US. To continue to have trade surplus with US is like to give out things of value for nothing (and to a big bully), that's stupid. The reason why US$ has not depreciated dramatically is because its value is backed up by goods and services of other countries. In a nutshell, US spends money (generate IOYs) and consumes things made by other countries, these IOYs are then burdened on someone else instead of its original debtor (US). To be more specific, if it were a fair exchange, it's America's responsibility to later provide the commodity when those countries spend the money to buy things (equivalent to US paying back its IOY), but US would say, I have nothing to offer, find someone else from which to buy (get back) something of equal value to the IOY.US also borrows money in the conventional sense, such as T-bond, but this is an extra debt. Americans may argue that since it pays interests on the debt it owes, so it's not cheating or stealing or blood-sucking. But this argument is invalid, since, until US has a real trade surplus, it is not paying back anything real. Beside, the rate with which they pay interests is less than both the inflation rate and the rate they make new borrowing, so it's more like a Ponzi scam.Alarmingly, the US recently has greatly accelerated the speed of printing new money, and it can be predicted that the speed of the whale-swallowing of global goods and services by US (i.e. its annual trade deficit, or blood-sucking) will increase accordingly. Since the master of bankruptcy Trump came into power, the per-year US budget deficit (the newly printed US$!) has soared to US$1 trillion, and in 2020 the budget deficit reached US$ 3.3 trillions. This year (2021), the US has added US$1.9 trillion in covid19 relief funds on top of its usual budget deficit. In addition, it is going to add several trillions US dollars in infrastructure fund.Why the over-issuing of US$ is such a big deal? Nowadays, government in most countries spends more money than its tax revenue, that's budget deficit, so it orders its central bank to print more money to make up the deficit. The extra money will usually be used for various public projects, the burden is also distributed on all the people in the country, through inflation. This is you pay for your own people's benefits, in addition, the budget deficit has to be approved by the parliament which you hold the voting right on them, so it's not that bad. However since US$ is the de facto global currency, so it's also valid money in every country in the world. But the right to raise US budget deficit and print more US$ belong to US government, which you have no control whatsoever. This money is only given to Americans, to cover the cost of bombings in Afghanistan, or nuclear submarines, or leisure trips of top US officials etc., but the burden (inflation etc.) is on all the people in the world, including you! In another words, for every country on earth, there is a second central bank outside its border, the US central bank. Now this bank is accelerating the money printing greatly, because Americans feel they really need more and more money, and they pretend it's none of your business. How do you feel about this?US's military spending already exceeds the next 12 countries' combined sum. Actually, as long as the world allow US trade deficit to continue and to increase without restriction, US might be able to increase military spending and budget deficit to infinity ! American leaders always blame its trade deficit on others, but US trade deficit and budget deficit are strongly positive correlated, the US greediness is the real culprit. The reward for all the hard work and the natural resource bleeding put into the goods and service exported to US, is just some fat kiting cheques, plus ever-stronger US military power, the bullying and bombings and killings by US around the world, and an aggravating global inflation.6. Trump is an odd combo, while a misleader, is also misled by himself, since he is a moronTrump, although he brags as stable genius, actually is a moron who can not think in logically correct way.Why so? Bob Woodward's recording shows that Trump deliberately downplayed the covid19 pandemic while fully aware of its severity since the very beginning, and Trump confessed all these to Bob, a journalist, doesn't these suffice to establish him as a moron? Even a man with mediocre IQ would have known that a pandemic like covid19 must be dealt with like a wild fire (extinguish at the earliest !), or it will cause enormous losses, and would not confess his thinking to a journalist who brought down president Nixon. Imagine a firefighter confesses to a journalist: "I deliberately downplayed the fire outbreak, I always wanted to".The Trump administration's attacks on China also exemplified that he is a moron and a liar too.He cheated all Americans on 2020/03/05: "The 3.4% death rate from China data must be exaggerated, the rate should be way below 1%, just like a flu". Later, to cover his own ass, Trump and his goons used tons of disinformation to scapegoat China, e.g. Navarro : "China deliberately sent infected people to spread the virus around the world", Pence: "China understated its data, it cheated the world". These attacks are either contradictory with one another, or not even close to plausible.It would be too hard for a moron like Trump to know the things that Frum talked about. Trump naively believes China is the real threat, not a fake threat, or a bogeyman. Trump also has done a great deal to hype up the China threat. Most famously: "China is raping us".7. Mr. Frum inadvertently confessed that the current US trade deficit status is good for US. Why?Frum: "U.S. policy makers should look to the future with a little more confidence and a lot more trust in trade, markets, and the superior potential of a free people."Usually American leaders are crafty, they know that the US trade deficit is a blood-sucking from the world economy and is good for US, so, on one hand, they raise budget deficit and issue more US$ to Americans which in turn causes more US trade deficit, on another hand, they raise up the volume of complaining voice and blame their trade deficit on other's unfair trade practice. They have been whining for the job loss of their workers while laughing the world behind closed doors.Trade deficit is only bad for countries who can not print unlimited amount of money and that money is the de facto global currency. The declining of some non-essential industries, as a result of the trade deficit, such as garment, toy, etc. have no effect on US hegemony. All the affected workers in those industries can live on welfare (Remember, US can print money at will), or be transferred to other industries.Trump is one of a kind, remember I said that he is stupid, he forgot that the bogeymen are created by America to mislead the rest of the world, instead, he got misled himself. Trump, unlike his predecessors, he played it for real, he hiked the import tariffs with many countries, which impedes the blood-sucking from world economy by US. In a nutshell, the US president Trump had been shooting US in the foot.Because Trump is an excellent showboat and megaphone, Trump's self-misleading got widespread acceptance in US, this could cause serious trouble for later American leaders. That's why Frum has to speak out the truth and confess that trade deficit is good for US.8. Humans raise cows for milk, termites raise aphids for honey, America raises a country for blood-sucking from its economy, that's one purpose of Indo-pacific strategy.The primary parasite host countries that provide blood for US to suck from are the major trade surplus countries of America, there are: 1970-2000, Japan. 1990-now, China. 1970-now, Middle East countries such as Saudi Arabia etc.As Japan and China fade out as its parasite host, US needs to nature a new country to replace them. The indo-pacific strategy has as its part the shifting-away of manufacturing supply chain from China, to less developed countries, of which India is an ideal candidate, having a huge population of cheap labors.But it is hugely counter-productive to the global effort of reducing green gas emission. Since this shift won't lower China's emission much (Because China is already developed, having good infrastructure, a complete manufacture supply chain, and a well-educated workforce, you can't take those away), but will create anther China. India's population is exceeding China's, if US can succeed in shifting manufacturing supply chain away from China to less developed countries (India etc.), imagine the potential blood that US can suck from India economy and the exacerbation to global warming. Global warming will lead to sea level rising, and Tokyo is one of the mostly affected city by this. It's really unfortunate for Japan to have a prime minister Shinzo Abe who invented a strategy that will lead to submersion of a big part of Japan's very capital Tokyo under the sea level.9. What is the most important and real global threat?The American military spending is more than the combined sum of the next 12 countries. Note money by itself has no value, it has to be backed up by real goods and services. For a country with huge budget deficit, the US$750 billions of US military spending is largely backed up by goods and services from foreign sources, or blood sucked from world economy: ~US$500 billions per year, through US trade deficit. In another words, roughly 67% of US military spending can be burdened upon the rest of the world, of which China has a share of ~50% (~US$250 billions). China's contribution to US military spending is more than China's own military spending. Now do you still think that China is a world threat as advocated by Americans? No! It's merely a parasite host country who contributes a huge amount of blood to US and yet gets badly treated by US. China, and the world minus US too, would be better off if the Chinese just wrote themselves the kiting cheques, and consume or simply dump to deep sea the things to be exported to US.US is also a super power in both conventional media and social network media. It can manipulate the international public opinion on one hand, e.g., the framing-up of Saddam with owning WMD and committing genocide, the smearing campaign on China with Uighur genocide, and disregard the international public opinion on the other hand, e.g., the repetitive blockings of Israel-Palestine resolution at UN.US has transferred human resource and saved material resource from non-essential industries to key industries (such as the making of nuclear missiles and bombs!) in global competition. The products from non-essential industries are provided by foreign countries such as China, which US get by writing them kiting cheques. So US can focus both more material resource and human resource to be utilized in the key industries.With the support of such huge amount of stolen wealth, US not only greatly improved the life of its citizens, but also used higher pay to seduce the best talents from all over the world to immigrate to US and serve the US. In this way, the US can invest unmatchable human and material resources in research and development. If you visit American universities and high-tech companies, you will be surprised to find these places are all like a mini UN, full of personnel from Russia, China, Eastern Europe and so on. An easy way to verify this status is to just look at the surnames of some renowned American scientists: Katalin Kariko (mRNA, covid19 vaccine, Hungarian), Andrew Ng (AI, Chinese), Demis Hassabis (Alpha Go, Cypriots-Chinese), Alisyn Malek (AI, Polish), these names go on and on, and are widely distributed in all fields.According to Frum, national power has more to do with a country's development in advanced technology sectors than with GDP. I agree with this. How many elite Chinese students or scholars have been brain-drained to US? How much percentage do they account for in the total? Now you still think China could be a world threat comparable to US?US$'s global currency status also give US government the spying tool on world business and long-arm jurisdiction power. US uses sanction frequently and recklessly. Its allies often have to sacrifice their own commercial interests to comply with America. For example, because of the sanctions against Iran, every Japanese has to spend more money on gasoline. But, the Japanese media seemed not to care about this much. This by itself is a big deal, it means that the media people themselves are brain-washed to think that sacrifice for America and yielding to America is a natural thing. Is this a Stockholm syndrome or mental slavery?One other significant issue, the recent developments in AI, superconductor, laser weapon, nuclear fusion, quantum computing etc. has thrust the world into the eve of a new technological revolution, the US has succeeded to seduce the best talents from all around the world, which makes its R&D capability greatly outmatch that of other countries in the world. It can be predicted that these advantages will be transformed into new and bigger technological and military advantages for US.The long term accumulative effect of the blood-sucking is very worrisome. The world is already deep in US$ trap. The more money US spends, the more US dollars the countries in the world will have in their foreign exchange reserves, the more reluctant countries are to ditch US$. The stronger the US dollar's global currency position will be. The more easier for US to abuse the US dollar. The deeper the countries other than US fall into the US dollar trap. Eventually so deep that they will never be able to escape from it.The US is flooding the world with dollars as it is raising budget deficit rapidly, hence its trade deficit rapidly. If the world excluding US does not interrupt this trend, the accumulated US trade deficit, the blood sucked from world economy by US, or equally, the foreign currency reserves earned by the world from US, is destined to increase from today's $10 trillions to $20, 30, 40, 50 trillions and so on in successively shorter time spans. The percentage of dollars in the total money of the world will keep increasing, US$'s position as global currency will strengthen. Eventually the US dollar will become the real world currency, and currencies of every other countries will probably be displaced. The Bank of America will become the Central Bank of the Earth. The later the world strive to stop this trend, the harder for the world to stop this trend. There is not much time left before the remaining chance for the world to escape from the US$ trap diminishes completely.America's approach to third world countries is blunt, profit oriented. For example, in Iraq, US imposes asymmetrical economic relations on Iraq at the point of a gun so that western corporate interests could take what they want from the people of Iraq without recourse. In Syria, Trump stopped US military forces from withdrawing in order to "keep the oil" for US.America's approach to developed countries is more complex, profit oriented and effective. It's a package that includes: control or take-over of media companies by capital investment, ideology propaganda, brain-washing of the populace, spying and political infiltration, coerced open-up of financial sector, using overwhelming capital power and better speculation technique to plunder wealth through financial markets of these countries, take-over and buy-ups of ace enterprises, etc. Japan, South Korea, Australia, Canada and so on are all such countries.Let's take a glance at America's track record with these countries.Germany:NSA spying row: Denmark helped US gather data on European officials, says reportUS is blocking Nord Stream 2 project or may use it as bargain chip to oppress Germany to make concessions in other fields;Japan:Why did Japanese semiconductors sink? Has Toshiba fallen into a trap set up by US?Japanese media hijacked? US investors control more than 30% of shares in some Japanese media companies, exceeding the 20% limit set by regulation.Sony and Mitsui Real Estate etc. 35 Japanese companies were taken over by overseas capital.How is Japan robbed of money by the US companies targeting Japanese financial assets?US wants to raise up the protection fee for Japan to US$8 billions,Canada:US slaps tariffs on steel and aluminum from Canada on national security excuse.US has set up a trap and forced Canada to jump into it. This is the arrest of Meng Wanzhou by Canada on the request of US. The charge against Meng arises from Huawei’s alleged violation of U.S. unilateral sanction against Iran. But the sanction is illegal in the first place, against the UN Charter, and it is the result of US's rescinding of an international treaty it previous had signed into. This event resulted the retaliation from China, and so the arrest of two Canadians in China. As a final result, the relationship between Canada and China has deteriorated from good or normal to adversary, and hence the economic losses on Canada (and China) due to bad trade relationship.This event is example that both China and an US ally have played out its roles according to a premeditated script by US. All the developments can be predicted without resorting to rocket science, and this event exhibit a pattern used repeatedly by US to contain China. It does not need to hack into the computer of the Oval Ofice to conclude the whole thing is scripted by US. Final words: it would be worthy of something for the heavy damages on both China and Canada if it can send an alarm to the world."Our justice system, and the federal Crown have been hoodwinked into participating in a show trial and shakedown, against our own national interests and risking our citizens." --nationalobserverAustralia:US incited Australia into a confrontation with China that China retaliates with economic measures, and this has resulted a major setback for Australia economy.S. Korea and Taiwan:US is using government power to coerce Samsung of S. Korea and TSMC of Taiwan to invest heavily and open up new plants on US soil (ref. 11, 12); This behavior is clearly a bullying and is against the national interests of the two Allies. This could make the two giant companies more vulnerable to future American manipulation and coercion as Toshiba has suffered.US wants to raise up the protection fee for S. Korea to US$5 billions, a five times hike.US sold F16 fighters at unreasonable high price to Taiwan.France:Web search keywords: Alstom;China:The biggest source country from which US sucks blood now (previously Japan). Yet, Trump and Trumpers truly believes that China is taking advantage of US by taking the big fat kiting cheques from US. The Chinese leaders got tricked by Trump's bluff to raise more tariff on imports from China, WTF, isn't the tariff hike a shooting on US's own foot? But China instead opened its financial market as a concession, authorizing the powerful US financial corporations to plunder quick money from China's financial market.Huawei was a very successful global tech giant in telecommunication and mobile phone. US used a combo of disinformation, sanction, political influence to have almost expelled Huawei out from the most lucrative world market, and its very existence is now threatened.The bloomberg.com has concocted a fake China spy chip story to demonize China and Chinese hi-tech companies. Although it is proved to be a total fabrication, the damage has been done, and bloomberg has not even made any apology or been punished for defamation. The idiom "Lying does not pay" does not apply to Americans.For more info on this, see: US government is mounting a disinformation campaign through multiple sources to discredit China – and taking down a huge media entity as collateral damage, and ref. 3, 4, 5, 6.From the above examples, we can conclude: US has been using its existing advantages to promotes its own development and hinder other's progress, thus there has formed a positive feed-back loop mechanism so that America's advantages over the rest of the world is self-amplifying and at the expense of other countries.10. How should the world deal with the US$ trap and US bully?1st off, the strategy master postulates a theorem: If a country is a clear-cut number 1 world power and has bullied other countries, then with very few exceptions, it is strategically beneficial to drag down the number 1 power. Unless the world gets united to contain it, there is a tendency for the world to slideinto furtherlopsided state.If a country has bullied other countries, then no matter how it tries to project itself as morally noble, it is essentially a hypocritical greedy bully. It will tend to increase its advantage by exploiting and bullying other countries, its focused targets may be some other countries now, but when it has finished them, it will get even stronger, and your value to it is reduced, eventually its bully targets will cover all the countries. So, drag it down before it has the chance to bully you, or wait for it to bully one by one.Think about it, the only super power on earth today, US, is hyping up the China threat theory, saying "if China were No. 1, the world will be like a hell" blah, blah, blah. Really? Put aside the big "if", but can and would the future China block the world from using American products such as Apple as US has done with Huawei? or hinder Germany from proceeding with Nord Stream 2? or order the world not to buy oil from or sell things to Iran after it had formally signed an agreement along with major world powers? I haven't even touched the numerous cruel evils done to third world countries by US empire. It's really difficult to find things that China has done or could do that can match up the evil things done by US, other than the Uyghur genocide farce fabricated by the US propaganda machine, which, even it were true, pales so much than the evils done by US, and if is a fabrication, then by itself another evil deed on US account.Please imagine what the world would look like, if US can keep sucking blood from world economy, by having a trade deficit at US$600 billions or more a year and then printing US$1 trillion or more new money a year to refill its wallet, and cause global inflation, for 50 or 100 years?As US is sharply increasing its annual budget deficit, we, all the people on earth with no exception other than Americans, are being boiled like a frog in warm water, with US turning up the heat on us. That is the true but never revealed big picture of today's world. How? Hour by hour, boatloads of goods and service are shipped from all around the world to US ports, carrying petroleum, clothing, computers, furnitures, mobile phones and everything you name it. The reward for all the hard work and the natural resource bleeding put into these is just some tiny kiting cheques, plus ever-stronger US military power, the bullying and bombings and killings by US around the world, and an aggravating global inflation. As US budget deficit increases, its speed of money printing increase, then its annual trade deficit increases, so is the above process accelerated.Biden recently advocated: "We must start with diplomacy rooted in America’s most cherished democratic values: defending freedom, championing opportunity, upholding universal rights, respecting the rule of law, and treating every person with dignity". Translation: Trump is a moron who crippled the US propaganda machine, one of the most powerful tool in its global hegemony.Trump: You (China and Russia) are evil, we are too. Biden: You are evil, we are angel. Democratic values, defending freedom, upholding universal rights, etc., are the incantations of Americans, used along with its bogeyman ruse, to cheat the world to help US to enhance its global hegemony. We have seen enough of American hypocrisy. US does not give a damn to these other than its own national interests. For examples, Saudi Arabia, an autocratic country, is the closest ally of US, and US has killed ~6 millions people (mostly Muslims) since 2001/9/11, while slandering China with fabricated Uyghur (Muslims) genocide charge, or pretending to be caring about the human rights of Uyghurs.The media branch of the US empire is an important and powerful tool for US. Americans use US$ investments to have infiltrated into the mediae of many countries, along with the powerful US SNS sites, Americans' control on global public opinion is like tentacles of a huge octopus. These have tremendous brain-washing powers and have the ability to spin right into wrong and vice versa.The world is on track to, or maybe with one foot already in, a dystopia democracy ruled by a global emperor (like Trump or worse) with only Americans having the voting rights and where every country has to be submissive to the US empire which has done many evils in the past. The reckless ballooning of US budget deficit and military spending is a demonstration of how the world except US is helpless when it comes to matters of key global importance, and US can do whatever it likes without regard to any others. So is the rescinding of the Iran nuclear treaty and illegal sanction against Iran. And because of the positive feed-back loop mechanism with the American advantages, the situation is getting worse.The US$ issue is paramount strategic important for every country on Earth. No country has given enough attention and resource to this issue, perhaps because it is a very difficult and sensitve (ref. 26, US has tremendous power and influences in its ally countries) issue. So, the world is in a very perilous situation. I here remind everyone, whatever amount of attention and resource you give to this issue can be rewarded by the importance and value of this issue, and it would be easier to attack this issue with a concerted international effort.To avoid this fate, the world must see through the various shenanigans of US, stop or reduce your country's trade surplus with US if it's chronic, or help or encourage other countries to do so, this will cut down the blood-sucking by US. Next, revamp the unfair global trade system, cooperate to distribute the world finance, science and hi-tech, media sectors instead of pivoting on US axis. This can be called Global Power Distribution strategy (or shifting supply chains in advanced sectors away from US), a counter strategy to the Indo-Pacific strategy. The world have been bullied too much because of US monopoly in these sectors, enough is enough!Some people are buzzing with the Dump-the-Dollar talks. In my opinion, this is impractical, it would be easier to stop the world from sliding further down the dollar trap, by curbing or eliminating the trade surplus with US, limiting foreign capital inflow and investments from US. These measures would effectively stop or reduce the blood-sucking from the world economy by US, but is still very hard to carry out. The world must cooperate to achieve this, nothing less can do.When dealing with US, it is important to look at its track record, so you won't be cheated or lured into a trap by a sweet temporary deal. Note Americans can tear down an agreement anytime it wants, e.g. the Iran nuclear deal. It is also important to note US is the single global hegemony, it is powerful, so sticking together with other countries is very important.Think about what you should do to deal with the US$ trap and US bully. It's the most important global issue and undoubtedly a very tough one. This article is the first shot at the 4 million pounds gorilla, people are hardly even conscious o the problems. The fate of the world is hanging in the blance, please help to spread the words at the very least, don't let me fight the war for 7 billions of people alone if you care about yourself and people of your country.Copyrights NoticeYou are welcome to republish, use or translate this article for non-commercial uses, free of charge, or use part of it.
