  1. The US being quite rich has some nuances. The bottom 90% of the population aren't particularly rich on a world standard and the US government has debt 120%+ of GDP. So basically the country is somewhat poor and 90% of individuals while not being poor on a world standard aren't rich either. The top 10% of Americans are really rich.

  2. There's more history than that, the Philippines was a US colony. The way Trump talks he might consider retaking it but he sort of seems anti Asian so maybe not.

  3. Probably not much because as a general rule it's really hard to sue a government. Not impossible but more difficult than if it was a private corporation or individual.

  4. We are diplomatic. In the short term the trade war if it happens is actually going to benefit Australia. Why would we attempt to become involved in the trade war as a combatant against the US? We need to look after ourselves or Australia first.
