Do you know how to read and understand a graph? It seems not.

USA has not had a trade surplus for 50 years- USA is in $40T Debt.
China enjoys annual trade surpluses of over $1 Trillion and growing.

Only the economically illiterate do not understand that this means.

After the GFC meltdown caused by reckless neoliberal financial system deregulation in the US it was China that kept the global financial system afloat- that is why the IMF invited China to join the board of reserve currency issuers- it needed China to maintain the petrodollar.

These are the facts that you are unable to stomach- your weak stomach does not alter the facts.
