1) China has the U.S. in it's financial pocket now. The only reason you guys are keeping your military budget way over inflated is due to the tons of loans these guys are giving you.
2) While the U.S. has around 1.6 million military personel, China has around 2.2 million
3) China has up to date weaponary, training, vehicles and of course Biological & nuclear weapons. America likes fighting nations that have none of this, Who says we are going to war with China?
4) Where is your proof that the quality of training is far superior? Look when things are mass produced or in the case of Chinese people, you have a mandate that requires every chinese citizen to serve in the military, which anyone will tell you a country with mandatory service requirements will have far less standards than of those countries who have all volunteer armies. COMMON SENSE
5) No one in their right mind would be foolish to go to war with China. You do that, and the whole world blows up, If a country were to go to war with china, it would be an air/naval campaign most likely to destroy defenses in which case the USA reigns superior in these areas.
6) China is one of the few nations not saddled with debt, not in a recession and in fact has a growing economy. They aren't trying to police the world (yet). Yet again the chinese could be riddled with debt, however we ony hear what the communist government releases to the public
