| Beating China: The New Cold War |
| 2019-06-13 |
| Far too often, pundits and politicians alike make the case that America should avoid another cold war, this time with China. There is a problem with this argument. America doesn’t get to choose whether or not to start another cold war. ...China chose to start this cold war; we are already in the middle of it. America doesn’t get a say unless it wants to lie down and lose. It isn’t the same type of cold war, and each side has different objectives, but it is contentious no less. If America wants to win the Second Cold War, it has to do several broad things, but for one it has first to acknowledge that it is already ongoing. |

| #1 Unlike the Soviet Union, the Red Chinese can match us in an arms race. Just like the Soviet Union, they are stuck buying stuff that's not very useful unless it's actually used. We have the same problem but we make better stuff cheaper when it comes to first strike capable weapons. In the end, we can win by trading less with them and getting away from the idiotic notion of managed decline as a diplomatic doctrine. |
