but much of the West are debt pigs  run by greedy kleptocrats ( the Taiwanese  got that right )


 if you were a drug lord   would you keep selling to folks that have future troubles in paying  , because that is the scenario China is looking at 


 yes Australia  has plenty of desired minerals  ( that could be bought elsewhere  at a lesser quality/high transport costs ) , but is behaving like a brat without alternate customers ready if China calls their bluff  ( now if 30% of our exports went to India already , MAYBE we could play that game with a chance of winning )


 Russia can supply plenty ( and eventually so will Mongolia and Afghanistan  )  lesser quality  in some cases   , and a less critical trading partner  , for all his flaws  Putin treats business like business not some political photo-op


 China has the West captured  because the West made it unprofitable to manufacture at home  , China could easily focus on Russia  and Asia  for it's exports  and concentrate on better quality goods  , letting India grab the bargain basement markets and take the debt risks


 i know a former  business man who needed software tested  PROPERLY  in the end India and Vietnam  won the contracts ( they both tested the same software  to double-check .. aka no fudging the results ) yes it could have been done here  but nowhere nowhere the  same price OR as quickly
