Did you ever think of what would happen to China if the US didnt pay it back?

The Chinese know that there is no way they will ever be paid back (i.e. the U.S. will inflate it's way out of this mess....there is no other alternative other than default). That is why the Chinese are buying gold mines with dollars. Sadly...the Chinese appear to have a plan. The U.S. has Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd. Morons.
