Buying the onion and giving the entire staff lessons in material analysis to supplement their ability to take the piss would be such a coup.
My only concern with this is whether or not it will result in China expanding its influence until it reaches capacity.
Once China expands to its maximum capacity it will then be possible to stretch the country. One of the reasons the US has been unable to fuck with it much has been because it is operating with considerable room to spare in order to elastically deal with issues.
If I were going to build a campaign against China, I think my starting point would be to invite China to maximise its capabilities, to use them all up on all things. Then upon reaching those limits you would be able to start fucking with it in a way that causes real problems. You genuinely can't do anything against China while it has heaps of spare capacity.
USAID had a $36B budget. China could absolutely deliver as much aid at a far lower cost due to both socialist efficiency and not spending most of the budget on imperialism. And China has a $1T trade surplus.
I think it's pretty much impossible for this to stretch the PRC too thin.
It’s cheaper to cause problems than to solve them. That being said, I agree with despite that.
I'm almost convinced the US bourgeoisie secretly want a Chinese century.
In Cambodia, one of the countries most hit by USAID's pullout, China has announced new funding programs for a variety of causes, including child healthcare, nutrition, sanitation, and land mine clearing.

How evil! Don't they know they should only be funding political propaganda and paying off politicians?!
