Curiously, I commented on the forum recently that it would appear we are building our own Belt and Road Initiative in the U.S. Our infrastructure is RAPIDLY growing and improving. I eagerly await my annual summer road trip in my race car.

Over the last 3-4 years, I have witness a ridiculous amount of road improvement and upgrades to our infrastructure during my drives around the country. Specifically on I-70 and I-80. I have heard similar reports from other major highways.

We are adding traffic circles, eliminating toll booths, fixing bridges, and expanding highways from 2 lanes to 4 lanes. We are also improving the surfaces of roads to make travel more fuel efficient and do less damage to your vehicles and less wear to tires.
All of these improvements save time, resources, and consequently, money. So we can spend it on other things. Like recreation and research.
This plan rivals, or exceeds, Eisenhower’s plan by leaps and bounds. Comparatively. Considering the threats and technological developments since then.
Truthfully, we have no way of knowing what the future holds. As the intelligence community saying goes…
It is easier to predict long term trends based on the bigger picture than it is to predict the short term trends based on smaller samples of data
Meaning, It’s easier to know why China is building the Belt and Road Initiative, but it’s harder to predict when they will make a breakout and flex those blue water naval muscles.
As someone who went to an all men’s high school in Baltimore, joined the Airborne Infantry, and worked as a bouncer for several years, I can assure you one thing and one thing only.
We are in the trash talking phase before the big bar fight. The sides are lining up, fists are being made, and people are running short on cheesy one liners and “mom jokes”. The moment when everyone goes into targeting mode is coming. When they beginning to to drop their eyebrow and eyeball their targets to judge the distance and direction before the attack.
Any day, I think we are gonna wake up and see half a Battle Carrier Group limping home. Mostly on fire.
Most likely, it will be the 5th or 6th Group limping back home and converging into the other to create a large, wider, more secure BCG to RTB for refit and repairs.
At which point I hope we have control of airspace, cyberspace, and space actual.
Unfortuantly if the trends continue, I foresee this answer, the G-7 infrastructure project, becoming China’s solution to our problem. Infrastructure is a two way road (Literally…) and if the enemy breaches the gates, which it appears they have considering the Chinese Military Airbases being built in Texas, and the prevalence of Chinese goods in our schools, politics, and markets; I can only assume we are in for the long haul on the hard road.
Luckily, that road was recently resurfaced with black top; So it shouldn’t be too bumpy. (Applause)
Thanks for reading. I am going to post the intelligence brief from 2011 by Stratfor that completely drops the ball on analyzing the Chinese threat. These are the kind of people briefing our politicians and acting as subcontractors for the CIA, FBI, NSA, and DIA. And so on…
Wonder why they would do that…
What other intelligence companies were founded in 1996…
What did they know?
Why were they created?

Why ignore the obvious… How can you be so wrong… And so clearly trying to change the subject…
How did our intelligence agencies know the belt and road was being built in the early 2000’s but ignore the threat.
If you can answer that, you understand the question.

    Why is the BRI a threat?
    Friedman’s assessment was accurate for 2011.
    Kaplan’s premise that Chinese dependence on shrinking US/EU consumer buying power was also accurate for the time. Crazy western credit and spending sprees saved China’s economy. China took advantage of this by taking over US political, educational and technical areas using AIPAC methods and consultants.
    That’s on the Federal Reserve, US ‘national security’ chasing rag head ghosts and US /EU population in lala land.
    Now the decrepit G 7 is trying to ape Eurasia with a broke banking system , mentally ill ruling class/population and gangster moves with Schwab’s blueprint to show China that hey- we can be totalitarian too.
    Whatever you are seeing on the road is not Eisenhower level believe me. I do this for a living and the steel and concrete numbers versus the Brics is pitiful.

      The Belt and Road is obviously a threat because it’s how China/Israel/Russia/Iran is gonna dominate economics and warfare in Europe, Asia, Africa, Middle East.
      Was that a serious question???
      Friedman is a Zionist who could care less about the U.S.. No-one is that dumb in real life…
      Our leaders aren’t mentally ill idiots. They paved the way for the Belt and Road by destroying the nations in the Middle East who wanted their cut or were in the way. We did the job for Israel/Russia/China so they wouldn’t catch the blame and instead we do.
      You’d understand that if you sat in a classroom in the last 20 years. It’s ruined trying to be publicly proud of military service or meet a nice girlfriend because of the Anti-American propaganda because of Sino-Zionist imperial action.
      We don’t need to completely build from new like Eisenhower. Just fix up what we have. And the level of construction is nearly every single on ramp from here to NC for a 6 hour drive. This is true for the entire country.
      Try to not take everything so literally… That’s expensive, and isn’t something that should be dismissed.
      Are you paid to disagree with everyone on everything?

      • boss21 June 17, 2021 at 10:00

        I am paid to build stuff. But they won’t let us. The bulk of the money is going to green bullshit. Russia spent half Amtrak’s budget on just the Moscow / St Petersburg line. Cut 8 hrs to less than 4 so far. When it’s done it will be 2. That’s DC to Boston downtown to downtown in 2 hrs.The only thing that threatens is our ego and it should.
        People SITTING in classrooms put us where we are now. I didn’t grow up here so can be more clinical about where we are. The only hope we have is to think on a massive scale and outpace them. Lighting fires in their path is what the Cheyenne and Souix did. That worked out well.

          It’s hard to light fires when they live on their own islands and in high security penthouses surrounded by 50,000 police officers.
          The intelligence agencies and federal law enforcement needs to do their damn job. And if these people ever leave the country the military needs to arrest them.
          And then it needs to be kept VERY quiet so there aren’t any race riots or mass shootings.

            I was talking about all the wars being fomented/fought for 20 years to block the rebuilding of the McKinder World Island/Silk Road routes. I thought we were on different wavelengths buts it’s more like language.
            The intel ‘community’ is ‘doing it’s damn job’ – for the enemy.
            The reporter who broke the Clinton/Lynch ‘tarmac meeting was suicided a few days ago.
            Revolver news , Jones and Tucker Carlson publicly accused the FBI of leading the Jan 6 ‘attack’.
            Jayden X/Sullivan’s father is a disgraced USAF officer.
            Fox News reporter in Texas flipped live on air saying she and her colleagues were not allowed to report the truth re the vax, hcq etc.
            AZ officials are hiring private security to protect themselves- from the feds.
            We have massive problems to fix here. We might recover and in a decade be in a position to shape policy if not dominate globally.
            Right now we can’t dominate Portland.

        Johnny, some talk about BRI should be one of the topics of a future SOL episode…..

        • boss21 June 17, 2021 at 11:34

          Good idea.

        • Johnny Paratrooper June 17, 2021 at 16:59

          I’ll start making notes.

    Every war we’ve been in for the last 20+ years has a connection to Israel and BRI. Just a few years ago it was “Israeli intelligence” telling the Pentagon that Iran was planning strikes on American forces, and pushing for conflict with them. We’re like the big dog that gets directed at any opposition to Israel and the BRI.

    • Johnny Paratrooper June 17, 2021 at 16:55

      Correct on all counts. And then the soldiers return home and the same people call us racist neo-nazis all day. Import foreign labor, corrupt our politicians with sex operatives, and have turned the corporations and institutions into marxist bases. While selling our technology to China and Russia. Who in turn copies it and sells it to the world. Flooding the market and ruining the chance to make money.
      And I would bet one million dollars they own the ships that import Chinese goods…

    If anyone thinks that traffic circles are great, I can recommend a good therapist. Drivers are no more polite in them than they are on the road! And try driving a Big Truck in them! ARGH!!!

    • Johnny Paratrooper June 18, 2021 at 19:14

      Traffic circles do reduce traffic. However, there is a learning curve because Americans aren’t used to them yet.
