I find the comparison between China and Napolean/Nazi Germany, as a system of looting weaker economies, to be weak. If anything it would have been more relevant to consider French/British/Spanish/Dutch/Portugese colonnial empires, or even going further back the Roman empire.
- Fjolsvith 8y agoIf you were arguing that China would continue to be a strong economy by continuing exploitative expansion, then yes, that comparison would be more relevant. However, the article was trying to argue that China's activities are not sustainable and will lead that country down the same path of failure for the given comparisons.
