Lol.Been posting for some time on here that the party's grip on power is a lot more tenuous than people in the West believe. Still, this story still seems filled with a lot of speculation and wishful thinking everywhere it's being reported. It'll be interesting to see what this means for US-China relations if true. Of course, I'm sure in some people's fevered minds this will only be so he can pass on orders to Comrades Biden and Pelosi and serve as a backchannel to all powerful emperor Xi who still runs the world through the dockworkers union or something equally insipid.
"Owns or holds legal rights" is doing a lot of work in your first sentence. They absolutely do not own 90% of mined rare earth materials. This is a gross misstatement. Gates owns more US farmland on his own than China does, as I'm sure you know. And there have been much larger and grander projects undertaken by people and nations in history, though belt and road is again more flashy rhetoric than anything. Also, there have been much greater wealth transfers in history, particularly if viewed in aggregate as you seem to be doing with Chinese interests.Lol.
China owns or holds legal rights to 97% of the world's largest ports, & over 90% of the world's mined rare earth minerals, as well as proven mine contracts for the foreseeable future worldwide. They've bought up the chicken industry in America, including Tyson, & they've bought up millions of acres of farm & grazeland .The belt and road initiative is the largest project mankind has ever undertaken. Silver, gold and copper are heisted out of America, the LBMA & Comex to China, who're buying it with exchanged bonds and treasuries.
It's the greatest wealth transfer in history.
The idea that China doesn't have the U.S. deep state and current administration as its military wing to destabilize folks who won't play ball is utterly moronic.

Jill said she has no idea who you areLiterally everything you said was wrong.
REM's - Top producers are China, India, New Zealand, parts of Central America, North of Ghana & Australia.
They hold the African contracts, they hold central American contracts, they hold New Zealand contracts, and hold rights to 97% of Australia's REM's.
China is the largest single owner of REM's on earth.
The U.S. has one mine in California.
Rather than google it, call First Majestic in Vancouver B.C., ask for Jill.
Gates is the largest private owner of farmland. China owns far more through subsidiaries and companies, including cattle and pork.
Nothing, ever, comes close, to the belt and road initiative. It's not even a question. It will require more copper than all the transmission lines in North America and the transatlantic cables combined. It will require more silver than every single EV car on earth combined from the time they were created until the B&R is finished. The amount of concrete needed is off the charts, will be drudging the sea floor to crush sea shells like the Romans.
It will require more steel than our railroads and skyscrapers combined.
I'm pretty well-versed in history, if you can think of a more ambitious or grander scale project, I'd certainly like to hear it. This isn't propaganda, it's fact.
And no, this is by FAR the largest wealth transfer in history.
How do you compare that?
Look how China acquired their gold, and go take a gander at how many tons they've taken delivery on each month in the past 2 years. It eclipses our entire stated stockpile.
No, when this is done, particularly now that Basel-3 was passed, being implemented on June 28th in part and again in Jan.2022, with golds revaluation being tied to the digital yuan which will be backing it btw, you're talking in today's money, over $100,000,000,000,000.00
Again, if you know something I don't, I'd like to hear it, but I'm pretty well-versed on historical monetary policy.
The only reason we don't look like the Weimar republic right now is because like I said, we're China west. Once people can accept that things get a lot easier, and clearer.
This IS financial advice btw, get gold.
As usual, you have no citations or links. I've asked you before if you worked in a field related to government, trade, commerce, geopolitics or foreign policy, or anything that would position you as an expert to make these claims, in lieu of sources.Lol.

In other words, you have no sources, links, citations, education- formal or otherwise- experience or training in the fields you post about regularly here. That makes you a bullshit artist.It's common knowledge.
I work in construction management, and am mine-focused & investment focused, so my area of study is acquiring positions in the jr. mining sector worldwide eg: gold, silver, uranium, copper etc.
I'm also an electrician & pyrotechnic operator and builder, so am not only into copper & aluminum acquisition, but also chemicals and trade with Liuyang China.
I don't watch tv shows, because I don't have tv, I spend my time researching independently.
But what you're asking for is citations that are readily available for a retort to kneeblock?
He doesn't know what he's talking about, and I owe you a citation for retorting to his claims?
Just google bro.
Find some good websites, put the porn down and turn off the idiot box.
There's a world happening.

Well fuck, makes perfect sense.Yeah.
That's all wrong.
Try it like spark - yuree
Once again, there is a lot of slippage in your words. You use words like "own" when I don't think that's what you really mean. Holding rights and contracts is not ownership. At best they dominate the imports market for REMs but they don't do so for the purpose of internal use, rather to satisfy external demand for the electronics they overwhelmingly manufacture and to serve as an essential conduit in global trade relations, a position traditionally held by the west in general and the United States in particular. Insofar as the nations China has a majority of contracts with rely on them, China is largely reliant on Western markets. It's an interdependent system, not the deficit you're imagining.Literally everything you said was wrong.

Regarding Gates vs China and farmland, I'll freely admit to being corrected on that point if you manage to provide a source. Foreign governments who own US farmland are also counted as private investors in the way we use that term. So insofar as Gates is the largest private owner, that means his interests outnumber China's by definition. Though I imagine you have a source for the shell companies and subsidiaries. Present it?
Regarding the belt and road initiative, again you're engaging in word slippage and hyperbole, especially in that you're taking Xi at his word that what he wants is achievable politically or economically. The thousand yeat third Reich was just as ambitious; the Soviet plan for worldwide communism equally ambitious; the colonial sun never setting on the British Empire was just as ambitious, the Golden Horde's plan for world conquest, equally ambitious; the transatlantic slave trade, incredibly ambitious (and successful); the spread of developmentalism, astonishingly ambitious; the third world project and non-aligned movement, ambitious. The lists go on and on. What you're measuring as incredibly exceptional is based on rhetorical exercises and so far, some successes that could just as easily be reversed or undone. I do think, to your point, that it's worthwhile to draw attention to individuals/parties/nations quests for world domination, but my contention is calling it the most ambitious plan in world history is either needless exaggeration or betrays a shallow understanding of history and rhetoric.
Your gold nostalgia in a fiat world is the only thing I can grant you may be worth taking seriously. China's designs on holding the world's reserve currency are well known and gold is part of the pathway there, though I don't know what this has to do with any of your other points. The US certainly has strenuously opposed this and continues to because it would leave its one remaining bargaining chip besides its military might in the dumpster otherwise. But as I've said, China is not the paragon of stability, even internally, that it seems to be. This process of seeking global domination you believe in requires a lot of endogenous and exogenous factors working in unison, not least of which is Xi's faction maintaining its continued centrality in the party. In general, most of China's posture has more to do with consolidating and maintaining internal power and growing internal prosperity. The more imperialish elements are mostly in service to that (or at the expense of anyone else), much as they were foundational to the United States' own development since the progressive era.
It only takes 28 days to walk from Sacramento to Texas? That’s being able to go 24 hours non stop? Holy shit, that’s a long fucking time.Fun fact I did recently on a monetary book I'm collaborating on:
If you took the United States debt in $100 denomination & stacked it in Sacramento, then your stack fell over, you'd have to drive to Houston Texas to find the other end; or walk 28 straight days without stopping.
do you have ant sources or citations for that??Fun fact I did recently on a monetary book I'm collaborating on:
