China knows that great powers are doomed by their war machines.
3rd century BCE, the mighty Qin united Warring States, raised the Great Wall, entombed Terracotta Army beside the first emperor of China. Yet after forcing soldiers into endless campaigns and bleeding the people dry for imperial glory, the dynasty collapsed within 15 years.
8th century, the resplendent Tang dynasty drew tribute from the world's farthest corners. But intoxicated by conquest, its army marched deep into Central Asia, allowing military factions swell unchecked. When the weakened state could no longer feed their appetites, An Lushan's rebellion torched the capital Chang'an and plunging the empire into irreversible decline.
13th century, the invincible cavalry of Genghis Khan thundered from Europe to the Pacific. But endless expansion drained the empire as fast as it conquered the continents, reducing it as one of the most short-lived dynasties.
5000 years of history taught us what America refuses to learn: Empires do not fall for lack of enemies; they crumble beneath the insatiable hunger of their war machines.
With 750 military bases encircling the globe while nearly $1 trillion a year vanishes in smoke, tell me, can you hear the ghost of default already marching in your parade?
