What's That Smell? It's the Chinese Middle Class

With all due respect to domesticated Chinese-Americans, it's alarming that their mainland home China now is producing middle class by the pallet full. Just yesterday China anounced a trade DEFICIT with its trading partners in the amount of $7 billion. Also China recently anounced that their domestic car sales are up 63% over last year. That puts them on track to consume over 13 million cars this year. That's 25% larger than Americas projected total. While there will be more Chinese killed in the crosswalks in Bejing by the visually, peripherally impaired , it will not be nearly enough to curb this unfolding environmental peril.

China has app. 1.25 billion munching, belching and defecating organisms. Imagine how many great swaths of forest will disappear worldwide overnight when all those types get credit cards. How many species will go extinct?How much fresh air will be polluted with rancid cooking greases and coal-fired plants? Buy American folks and starve the pests out.

Blue fin tuna wont have a chance. Eighty percent of their numbers have disappeared and ended up in Japanese bellies who consume 80% of the yearly catch. And now the Chinese are weighing in. Well if a war breaks ot between the Japanese and Chinese over the last sushi then the Blue fin will have a chance.

War these days between environmental terrorists has its definite upside.
