So now we can add “directly capturing a sovereign leader” to the list of crap the US has done. So what do you think will actually be “the straw that broke the camels back” for world leaders to actually do something? Think it’ll be significant or something mundane?

      European capitalists already did by moving all factories to China.

      Every country in the world already trades with China, it’s impossible not to. So why not use their currency?

          Why use authoritarian currency indeed.

          Why do Europe and America trade so much with the authoritarian regime?

          Don’t say the people are good but you have a problem with the regime. It’s the regime that developed China in the past 39 years.

            I think you don’t understand how world reserve currency works. It has to be at least influencable by other countries. Nothing can influence Yuan - it’ll never be a world reserve currency.

      Right! I’m shocked anyone would want that. I just told someone else it’s like leaving an abusive partner for an even more abusive partner. I’ve noticed countries being pushed towards China after the US went even more crazy after Trump winning. I believe they are making a mistake. Japan, South Korea and Taiwan could fulfill most of the same needs as China does and do so better. Just as a random example Japanese capacitors are known for their high quality. Japan and China both supply capacitors. Why not bolster Japan’s instead of China’s?
