ChinaWar: Tension rise between USA and China

Tensions

War has been predictable with China for the past twenty years as it becomes more vocal and demanding while it gains power and prosperity.  It is the natural order of things and with a communist dictatorship you can expect a much greater level of merciless behavior than a democracy even if the democracy becomes an Empire and gets arrogant.  The USA has become used to calling the shots and now it has a direct competitor that it created by allowing production and technology to go to China.  We are at the cusp of a multi-polar competition with the main two being the USA and China with Europe vacillating, Russia rebuilding its Empire, and many other nations just waiting to see who the next boss will be.  Since it is likely the USA won't go down quietly you can expect military confrontation between China and the USA unless the US backs down.  China will push it as it has done with creating Islands, economic zones, and soon it will go for full control of the Asian rim and South China Sea region.  It wants to dominate and other countries that may think they don't like PAX USA will someday very much wish for its return.  It may be seen as the good ole days.   The biggest question is who will win and will it go nuclear.

My bet is that it will go dirty right away since China is planning on taking the USA down multiple notches while the USA has been focused on Terror and a multitude of other expensive projects leaving China to build and plan.  They will make a move soon as in within the decade.

Advice:  Hold on tight it's going to be a rough ride down because even if the West prevails it will likely be very costly.  Plan your life around not getting anything from Asia cheaply in the future.
