China "owes almost all of its recent prosperity to the US". This assumes it could not find other markets. What are you smoking?

Furthermore it's a 2-way street. Without foreign, including Chinese, willingness to take on US debt, do you think our interest rates would be as low as they now are, especially considering our deficits?

And now we're coming to the crunch, with US and Chinese foreign policy diverging drastically.
