What happens if China stops buying US debt and lets the country be? We'll never find out what would happen because neither country is stupid enough to find out. China will not dump the over 1 trillion dollars they own and the US isn't stupid enough to force them.
They are playing nice because they have to.

I just hope we have a chance at staying one of the leaders. I don't think I would like it if China took the lead. Only because the are hardcore Communists.

What is the difference of that and losing more the a trillions in intellectual property over the decades? We lose more of that then them buying the debt.

One is obviously easier to control than the other. How do you stop someone from using your ideas? How do you stop them from accessing your bank account? Two different items altogether and it was nothing to do with what I was talking about.

The biggest holder of US debt is Americans.

The way they enforce ideas in U.S. is patent infringement. There is a video on China Uncensored talking about all the ideas China has stolen. One example was McDonalds but instead of two arches they had 3. Not to mention all those phony handbags and watches, that is just the tip of the iceberg.
You are right on how it is different but we wouldn't have had to borrow if we had that money they so obviously stole from U.S.
It is like citizens do their best and start something only to get screwed half way around the world.

What it won't bring is them hurting the US economy that they rely on.
