China is like a man who does all the hard and dirty things so his wife can sit at home, file her nails, and let the dishes pile up. She wants to make it his fault that she maxed out the credit card, but the truth is that no other man will have her.

The woman is perfectly capable of taking care of herself, she just lacks the discipline and will. She looks at her children as if they are a burden, but really they are her greatest asset, even as she neglects them and lets them become malnourished and idle.


The only real question here is whether the man will get tired of it or not.

This is really a PARF thread. I can't even remotely think of how to address this directly outside of PARF without triggering people.
No one asked us to borrow money from China, and the only reason we buy things from them is because it is more profitable for businesses than sucking up and manufacturing here in the US. China isn't just an economic powerhouse, it is the powerhouse.

''But, but, you're just a big fat panda.'' ''No, I am THE big fat Panda.''
