China makes almost everything for the US. Even uniforms are being made in china for our soldiers.
So A war with china means, naked soldiers wearing suspenders and barrels and throwing rocks at the chinese since we would run out of things once china stops supplying the US
It's funny that people like piasabird think that Truman, the only guy in history to employ nuclear weapons in warfare was too chicken to...well... employ nuclear weapons in warfare.
The evidence for for what other have already responded to you about this is plain. You're an idiot. And if you think the Chinese government is this wonderful benevolent entity, you're below idiot status. They'd stomp all over their people in a heartbeat if the need arose. The general population is still not as free as we are here in the US.
Once our laser and rail weapons systems are fully operational only submarines stand a chance in hell.It would take all of the countries in the world to unite and attack together to defeat the United States, and even then they would probably fail.
This is actually what people were saying about the British entry into World War One. They were the premier economic superpower at that time, very little to gain and literally everything to lose.
Considered how much the Chinese have infiltrated in this country, the US cannot win a war against China. The Chinese are in every college in the US, they know every secret, every weapon development programs. The Chinese aren't going to fight the US in conventional war, the type of war which suits US.
you mean the people who are Americans now?
Tell me more about the nuclear arsenals in World War I.
Holy shit. Maybe if you used your brain a bit more you might be able to understand what other people say.
what are the terms of war? complete invasion?
Technicaly the UsA might be easier to invade based on infrastrucure..
but good luck pacofying the populous that has had a rock hard boner for some type of red dawn scenario.
On a realistic side, we could probably destroy 80% of Chinase meaningful modern hubs without stepping foot on chinese soil. They, unless thinga have vhamged drastically, have a hard oiter shell and thin watery interior. crack the egg and the whole thing falls apart

I think it's really entertaining watching you try to shoot me down but you're missing by so much.Holy shit maybe you should heed your own advice, hypocrite. The stakes are a lot higher with nuclear arsenals that can irradiate the world many times over. To equate the USA in 2015+ with Britain circa 1914 is a false equivalence, and there are many differences other than just nukes. The non-Britain-circa-1914 world is a lot different than the non-USA-in-2015+ world, too.
Let me put it this way: when was the last time 2+ members of the nuclear club got involved in a full-scale shooting war? If even Pakistan and India don't want to get into a conventional war that may spiral out of control, what makes you think China and the USA want to tussle? Exactly. The mere threat of Armageddon is thankfully enough to deter nuclear powers from attacking each other via conventional armies. Small skirmishes do still happen, but these days the nuclear powers mostly restrict aggression to espionage, cyberattacks, and economic competition. Sometimes they fund proxy groups, too, but even then they often try to present deniability, like Russia claiming that it didn't send soldiers to Ukraine.
We stretched our capabilities in a two war strategy involving two third world peoples in Afghanistan and Iraq. The shear lack of understanding of the limits of power will wind up killing all of us.

It really is. Please, keep going.

It would be a repeat of Vietnam and maybe Iraq!
We have ethics and morals. The Vietnamese just wanted to win. They didn't want casualties so they shot their own troops who were injured.
Sure we can bomb China from the sky with Air Superiority but when it comes to Naval and Ground game.. then it's game over. The Chinese submarines are very quiet, quieter and undetectable to our American sonar. The ground troops are well.. if you have another win hearts and minds.. we cannot win a guerrila war.
That said I don't expect China to overrun us either.. it'll be a stalemate.. the Chinese can't invade us and win competely. We can't invade them and win completely. It'll be like Iraq and Vietnam.. we may do a lot of bombings but we'll eventually withdraw.
