The semantics of Rumsfeld and the blatherings of Rice leading the U.S. and our military allies into an economic and military chess game with China can only get worse. The true question, and forgive me if this is a repeat of any previous letter, is why would China attack the U.S.? They don't need to. By the time Bush is done drilling America into the ground and the minimum recruitment age is raised to 59, we'll be so demoralized and anti-government China won't have to lift a finger—we won't have anyone left in the military willing to follow orders. Besides, they already process all of our steel; we'll go into debt buying their steel to make our tanks and ships, and won't have any money left over to fuel the things because China will own the oil companies we had to lease to support our steel costs.
