seesawed on Thursday after being weighed down early by fears

stronger dollar. "I think the China news is weighing on the market because
the high CPI is stoking fears of tightening," said Stephen
Schork, president at the Schork Group in Villanova,
Pennsylvania.

China already owns most of the US and it's debt. This tightening could be trouble for the US.

China owns the USA. Think about it. $800,000,000,000. for a "loan". They don't care as we can do nothing about it.

They've been asked to devalue their currency to strengthen their economy. They've refused since it would hurt their economy for a brief period. Something has to break. If it breaks too hard, they take other countries with them.

More gas stations lining up behind the 2.99 mark with diesel at 3.09. I almost can see them at the starting line waiting to jump over 3.00.

Drive less than the year before, unless you are in business and can add the price onto the consumer.

China is going to hose us in the long run anyway. They are doing to us what Reagan did to the USSR with an arms race, but China is taking us on economically by getting us addicted to their cheap goods supported by their falsely low currency. When they let their currency float, we will be paying almost twice what we are paying now, but we will be addicted to their supply chain as we will have moved most of our production over there. We clearly did not learn from what happened in the 70's with Japan when their currency went from 360 yen to one USD To 118 to one USD.
