I was not mentioning about obliterating their economy, if you re-read the thread; Simon made that comment. I was simply opining about how difficult or impossible it would be to do that given the wide reach that China has into the rest of the world.
As you mention about health care, I was SHOCKED when I saw that 90% of major medicines come from China. That is shocking to me. So China is holding us by the short-hairs when we need medicine? Aren't we paying enough for prescription drugs, often 5 or 10 times or more than other near-by countries?
I am still in shock.
