If anyone is biting the hand that feeds its the Chinese. If they stopped buying up US debt they wouldn't be able to do anything with all those dollars we've been paying them for Chinese made goods. They could either burn the dollar for heat or stop exporting goods to the US which their economy is horribly addicted to. I hope some future Chinese government is stupid enough to stop buying up US debt. We should be so lucky. Hell if we so much as threatened to stop selling them US debt I bet they would hand over the 5 perpetrators tomorrow.
