    just because we're denying the fact that China is a Red Communist country set out to collect our dollars and dominate the world doesnt mean we hate on America. Stop painting this world in such a Black and White picture. Have you ever been to China or any other 'Communist' country for that matter? Hell, the term communist is almost extinct in its purist form, everyone is a mixture of socialism and democracy at this point.

    China wouldn't get militarily involved officially. North Korea is of no asset to China and the U.S. is its number 1. China has a limited friendship with NK and that is failing because NK is so foolish. China however will most likely not even get involved other than continuing funding for the U.N.

    I hope we finally take out the bs leadership

    I say that anyone who puts up a graph like that and neglects to add just what our military does for the world as compared to the other militaries is painting the U.S in a bad light making us look like the bad guy. That is my opinion on this matter. Do you see my location? Western SF to be exact. It is what it is and the things I have seen here and the things my Chinese friends who feel the same way have voiced as well make me wonder. I don't have to stop anything.

    I also neglected to add what France and the UK do for the world in terms of supporting Nato operations, along with all the other countries depicted in that graph. I dont see how I used that graph to attack any one country, i used it as a tool to put your description of China's military spending in perspective. However, you chose to look at it as a direct attack on America. I guess it's easy for you to rally around the flag with any comment that you deem to not support your argument.

    I think you misunderstood what the graph was to represent. The graph merely is depicting that the US military spending far surpasses China's military spending and, I think, was put up to place some substance behind the fact that China lacks any military muscle or power projection. They do, however, have a vast "army" of cyber warriors.

    Expenditure = $$$

    So of course we have the greatest expenditure since we have the most technologically advanced military in the world. I would expect to see America as Numero Uno on a graph like this. It has nothing to do with "bad light" or "making us look like a bad guy"
