Yeah...congratulations, you won this binding ruling...but as with all things UN there is no enforcement authority.

And don't expect help from Duh Wun...he's so weakened the military here even if it wanted to do something bold it wouldn't be able to execute anything...or sustain any effort long enough to matter...

Y'all on your own...

Ramping up duties on Chinese goods would call for a little sacrifice by Americans used to cheap crap, but could be devastating for the Chinese economy.

It would be the best way to fight a "war" with China.

Yeah, I think that ship sailed about 25 years ago...the Neo-Keynesians the Ruling Class sold their souls to in order to fleece the masses and bribe them with free sh*t, subsidies, minor breaks and lots of shoddy trinkets with which to prop up an illusion of prosperity saw to that!

Frankly, I think they give people too much credit.  Besides, China bitching about Obama orchestrating a win in a court without enforcement power?

Sum ting jump shark!

Under 1.3 trillion, now  Again, manageable if we're serious about containing China.

I don't think we are and they know it.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States is using quiet diplomacy to persuade the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam and other Asian nations not to move aggressively to capitalize on an international court ruling that denied China's claims to the South China Sea, several U.S. administration officials said on Wednesday.
