Why China scares the US

It’s the next big thing. In the UK we may take China seriously, but it’s not the overriding economic issue. In the US it’s becoming a national obsession. Every month that passes there’s another China statistic that spooks Congress yet more and ratchets up what is approaching paranoia.

China is the next economic and military superpower, runs the argument; and because it’s communist, its methods are dark and its ambitions even darker. The US had better stop it now, or suffer the consequences.
