We Better Not Piss Off China

Here's what China is considering doing to Japan. It's called a "bond attack." We better not piss them off.

From the article:

A senior advisor to the Chinese government has called for an attack on the Japanese bond market to precipitate a funding crisis and bring the country to its knees, unless Tokyo reverses its decision to nationalise the disputed Senkaku/Diaoyu islands in the East China Sea.

It's time we started paying down our National Debt. Now.

Maybe we are trying to bankrupt China by borrowing so much and tell them to kick rocks.
