Xi is premier for life and make no mistake, he has, since he first assumed power, been all about redressing perceived wrongs and setting the Middle Kingdom back on what he sees as it's rightful place as world leader. He's not an ideologue as much as he is a romantic and romantics are always more dangerous because they are true believers. We blew it big time when we assumed that if we set China on the path of capitalism it would have a positive result. China is on the prowl and will not be stopped short of war. America's navy has been gutted, our wad has been blown, and China sees this as a now or never opportunity. The only hope is some form of real collective security including Japan and other smaller regional powers but we saw what happened the last time Japan got a hair up their ass as well. Hang on tight kiddies cause the dirty 30s coming down the road will make you look back at the good old days of world pandemics and inflation wistfully.
