No, all you need is five nuclear weapons, and you hit five differant economic superpowers. That will send the rest of the planet into a severe depression that will take years to get out of.

But the bubonic plague is a nice finishing touch, like salt and pepper on your scrambled eggs.

Re: A plan to screw the global economy
 

China just screwed itself up anyways. They slowed down their economy on purpose. So it will just be auto-matic, no buttons need to be pressed to crash chinas economy.

But when Chinas economy falls, it will be like what teh US did to the world. except worse.

My mom won't buy meat from wal mart

There are still ppl who will buy suff from smaller ma and paw shot becasue the qualiy is much better on somethings like meat and produce. But Wal Mart owns when compared with mass poduced goods.

Re: A plan to screw the global economy
 

I think it would be good having China as a superpower rivalling America. Just be interesting...........

Re: A plan to screw the global economy
 

China will not be a superpower to rival America. It is plagued with many of the same prblems that doomed the Soviet Union. Irrelevant, or should I say, Arsehole (how/why did you get a new name?), what evidence do you have that China will become a superpower?

Also, China slowed its econmy because their economy was growing much too quickly for the amount of hard currency reserves they have. An economy that grows too quickly is like a runaway train. The speed may seem helpful at first, but it will eventually be catastrophic.

Where did you get that statistic? I really doubt it's 60%.
