Anyone who thinks we are not in another version of the Soviet Cold War with China is kidding themselves. ￼ Just like in the 50s, 60s,70s and 80s with Russia, we will need to spend an untold extra hundreds of billions of dollars on military and intelligence resources to counter Chinese and a Russian Communist driven activities. Since Cold War II is occurring in ￼the “information age”, this one will likely be vastly more expensive than the last. I am sorry to report there is no way to avoid this as prudence demands we keep our guard up. History clearly demonstrates withdrawing from this fight unilaterally would only result in disaster, placing global freedom and democracy at extreme risk. An undefinable ability some seem to think the United States has to isolate itself from the rest of the world to magically avoid making all the required investments to maintain our freedom is a pure fantasy.
