I recently heard Charles Hess from InferFocus talk about the changes coming from China. The United States is about to be passed up in a big way due to Xi's "China Dream" https://twitter.com/cervinventures/status/860307819030958080

What should the US do than? Spend our tax dollars on foreign handouts?

If US companies want to invest in SE Asia there is nothing stopping them.

Bravo China. Instead of overspending on military conquer the world thru trade and investment.

I also applaud that idea.

But I do wonder if it's possible to protect/expand trade without military activity. Historically it seems military expansion is the tip of the spear for trade expansion.
