My question is this. Ok, China has some endemic economic issues (who doesn't? America has HUGE issues as well). Lets say this China growth bubble bursts. What exactly will the result be? Yes, a recession or even a depression (and it would affect economies globally to varying degrees), that happens so. They implode and are drop out of the top economic nations for the distant future? They become "Greece"? They have a brief hard time, learn from it and bounce back? What?


Lol what?

What happens if a black hole opens up in the Adriatic Sea and sucks all the water out? Will Italy cease to be a peninsula?

Well no and yes. My underlying response is implied by what I said.

I'll take the 'no' part as the most accurate. Trying to be coy and obtuse doesn't work well for you.

Rolling Eyes

I'll be more direct for you.

What I was saying, obliquely, is that I think your post was stupid. You were coming out with shite like "what if China implodes and drops off the map?", "Will they become the next Greece?" I mean, did you even read what you wrote? there is no way that anyone with sense could even begin to know about this, much less have any basis on which to form a valuable opinion. Hence I asked about black holes and the Adriatic Sea, because what you said is in the same league as that. Hell, yeah it could happen in theory, but it's far beyond my ken to know, and it is beyond yours too. It's just the kind of catnip for half-educated blowhards who want to sound important by pontificating about the state of the world, even though they know jack sh-t about it.

You failed in both attempts. You have no point. You have no answer to my post. Just because you fail to grasp the breadth of my answer you respond in such.

If its blowhard answer itin earnest. You can't or wont'. I'm going with the former.

Oh what? If you're jesting I'll play too. My point was Your post was stupid so I parodied it with an equally ridiculous question/statement.

Look man, I'm sure you're not a bad guy, and I have some vague sympathy with your posts on other threads, but you f-ed the pooch on this one. I have made my point, and I'm sure you know it too, regardless of whether or not you agree with me.
