China bashing
China has overtaken the US as the biggest threat to global stability in the eyes of Europeans, according to a Harris opinion poll for the Financial Times, which was carried out between March 27 and April 8. My good lord, China is actually ranking higher than Iran, can you image that? We Chinese are “goons and thugs” and said products manufactured in China are “junk.” - Hey, if it’s junk, don’t buy it! .. Ok, back to the poll, it found that China was the biggest threat:
Italy is with 47%, up from 26% in June 2007
France is 36%, up from 22%
Germany 35%, up from 18%
UK is 27%, up from 16%
All three last year ranked the US as a bigger threat. Hmmmmmm.. I don’t think the sophisticated Europe ever said a kind word about US nor Americans, just wondering why. Not China isn’t right. Sour grapes? The old money Europeans think making money is dirty and low class. All well, what can I say, tough love.
