If Jet Lee fought Chuck Norris who would win.
If Super Man and Spider Man duked it out who would win?
Its the great intellectual argument of many 9 year old boys.
Now here is one for you grown ups
If the US and China pursue capitalism who will end up with the others pie?
You thought only democracies could do capitalism? No that's just really something we American are sentimental about. Along with the romantic concepts of "fair", " individuality" and "worker rights". Expensive ideas that don't translate to Chinese culture at all. In China you have the 'right to work or die in prison'. You have the 'right to shut up and like it'.
Democracy is our advantage. But democracy is not capitalism. If we choose to continue down the road of consumerism/capitalism. I promise you the Chinese will win every round.
Our 700 Billion dollar bailout package doesn't even touch the surplus that China has a massed. Where are we going to get 700 billion dollars when we have a 3 trillion dollar national debt.
Humm I wonder. But I think the only choice we have is the 'right to shut up and like it'.

Charlie Brown Cartoon - You win some and you loose some
My favorite Charlie Brown Cartoon.
Linus is talking to Charlie Brown.
"You win some and you loose some "Linus says to Charlie Brown.
Charlie Brown responds: "Wouldn't that be nice."

Super Size Me too
Yes I saw the movie not to long ago - Super Size Me otherwise known as the the McDonald's Movie. Its the Morgan Spurlock film where the guy eats nothing but McDonald's and gets really fat to prove that McDonalds food is a crime against nature or something like that. So I have genetic chronic wasting disease. I thought to my self humm what if I take my medicine Mirtazapine and eat just one meal a day at McDonald's would that work? Could I gain weight just like Morgan Spurlock with out the bad blood work and liver function problems. Well yes and no. So I hate McDonald's food in general. The burgers and fries have always been gross to me.Their food actually gives acute intestinal distress and diarrhea. So I did breakfast there instead. I got an egg and cheese biscuit with an order of hot cakes each day for 6 weeks. Now while Mirtazapine works it only allows you to gain between 10 and 20 pounds over the course of 1 year. Its just enough to keep me out of the woods if I get the flu or something. However breakfast at McDonald's allows you to gain 25 pounds in 6 weeks. I have to stop now. If my calculations are correct My McDonald's breakfast habit will allow me to gain 216 pounds 1 year. My cholesterol is also not so pretty. I gained the weight in bad places as well and I had to add an extra Tae Kwon Do class a week to distribute my new weight better. You know like around the tummy and butt. That leads to heart disease and GI cancers. I also feel sluggish after eating their food. It makes me quite docile and full feeling. Fat and happy. So much so that I don't get hungry for lunch until almost 3:00. I don't know what McDonald's puts in their food but it sure has a strange effect on the human body.
