A couple of points on China that have I read multiple times from people who probably know a lot more than I.

- They are heavily dependent on imported coal and oil. These could be very easily blockaded.
- With their one child policy and children expected to support the parents in their old age, the general population is not going to be happy having a lot of their sons coming home in body bags.
- China has 10+/- years to do anything major, after that their demographics are going to be a big internal problem
- China and the USA are dependent on each other, seller and buyer.

Thru the pandemic, the thought had occurred to me that China could have acted while the rest of the world was severely distracted. I don't think that is the case anymore, also China is hosting the Olympics next year.
