The US & China are mirror opposites in this regard, and it will impact...


...both of our futures.

- In 2018, the US spent $650B on the military, while China spent $250B. (SIPRI Mil. Database)
- In 2015, China spent $450B on infrastructure (road, rail, air), while the US spent $90B. (OECD)

Possibly the most striking argument behind the sole-superpower reality of today vs. the dual-superpower reality of tomorrow.
