AUSTRALIA cannot juggle its relationships with the United States and China indefinitely and must choose a ''godfather'' to protect it, according to a prominent Chinese defence strategist.

Here is the crux of what Australia faces - our slap in the face of Chinese requests during the mineral boom were looked on disdainfully by the Chinese, and they put in contingency plans by building some of the largest mining infrastructure in Africa - this will come on line in 24 months, now they are asking the questions, are we with them, or the US.

Either way, we are their bitch.

China, as usual, is acting like a bully that always wants to get his way. I think the vast majority of Australians would prefer US cooperation over being China's bitch.

The US is militarily superior to every country in the world.

Nearly ALL of Australia's military equipment is US military of the shelf.

The US has tight export control over these technologies. Banning countries such as China access to said technologies.

How is anything you say practically achievable?

Being "with them" probably involves importing about 100 million of them, selling our shit dirt cheap, and losing what little sovereignty we have left and completely FUBARing the country.

Frank Castle is a liar and a criminal. He will often deliberately take people out of context and use straw man arguments.
Frank finally and unintentionally gives it up and admits he got where he is, primarily via dumb luck!

On the plus side, maybe we could exchange a sizable percentage of our over entitled skanks for some nice, educated Chinese women.

Yuck. I'd rather an over entitled skank.

I think women come across as entitled these days because of house prices. Another group bulls like fucking over, women. Bulls are pedos and youse should be in jail. A lot of women probably just want to stay at home and bring up kids, but you'd rather just ruin them and commit high treason, because that's what unbelievable scum you are.

I wouldn't mind that. Trouble is, if you have a Chinese babe, an hour later you want another one.

Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.

Forum Rules: The main forum may be used to discuss property, politics, economics and finance, precious metals, crypto currency, debt management, generational divides, climate change, sustainability, alternative energy, environmental topics, human rights or social justice issues, and other topics on a case by case basis. Topics unsuitable for the main forum may be discussed in the lounge. You agree you won't use this forum to post material that is illegal, private, defamatory, pornographic, excessively abusive or profane, threatening, or invasive of another forum member's privacy.

Accusations, attacks, abuse or threats, litigious or otherwise, directed against the forum or forum administrators aren't tolerated and will result in immediate suspension of your account for a number of days depending on the severity of the attack. No spamming or advertising in the main forum. Spamming includes repeating the same message over and over again within a short period of time. Don't post ALL CAPS thread titles. The Advertising and Promotion Subforum may be used to promote your Australian property related business or service. Active members of the forum who contribute regularly to main forum discussions may also include a link to their product or service in their signature block. Members are limited to one actively posting account each. A secondary account may be used solely for the purpose of maintaining a blog as long as that account no longer posts in threads.
