Honestly, so long as we keep the edge as far as our Air Force, Navy and cyberwarfare units are concerned, I'm not concerned about the Chinese military.

We have no reason to go to war against the Chinese. And they have no reason to go to war against us.

We do not need to land ships to fight the PLA or get within range of their carrier-buster missiles.

It would be a senseless war of attrition between ships, planes and viruses/hacks.

And it's only in the latter area that we're, so far, lacking.

As much as I'm going to be cautious about interacting with other countries and societies.

I see no reason for us to be hostile or competitive with the Chinese, or anyone else for that matter.

And, in fact, see a tremendous amount of potential for collaboration, interaction and joint benefit against potential foes that are unknown to us at the present moment.

Why aim the weapons at each other or quibble about who has "top spot" in the world when there is so much else that could be done.

Think about it.
