Matt, another great read. I believe the US has finally woken to the fact that China played a very different game than what we had realized over the past several decades. China followed Sun Tzu's advice on practicing the art of deception; making the US believe it was paying one game, just to awake realizing the game has changed. We are now finding ourselves trying to defend from the unanticipated dragons.

Good on you Matt, ‘game changing’ without letting your opponent know what has actually changed is usually a winner. Clods who fail to keep abreast of “change” and the implications thereof may wring their hands in despair and complain BUT there are simply too many of them in positions of power and with ability to maintain the status quo. Flexible open minds are in short supply - your article is thus timely and germane. Thank you.
