BUT, that's not to say that China couldn't inflict a lot of damage.

Well US military for sure. The thing is within a few years China will have surpassed our military, because the Trillions of dollars they get from all the stuff we buy from them, literally goes into their government and military. Communism at its finest!

Both lose, because of our economic dependency on one another. But, America. Lol at idiots who think the Chinese military is anywhere near as powerful as the U.S.

Neither. The USA couldn't take over China because they have to travel overseas and vise versa.

Neither. Both side's economies collapse before a single bullet is fired.

I just know that if they went through Canada, they'd have to fight through Canada's military (which isn't as weak as many seem to think). On top of that, I'm sure we'd be helping the Canadians fight off the Chinese to keep them from making it all the way to us. And the fact that most of Canada is open space just makes it all the easier for both U.S. and Canadian forces to bombard the advancing Chinese forces without having to worry about civilian casualties.

If we were to go to war, I actually see China winning, but not through skill or technology. They win the old fashioned way, by numbers. If they wanted to take us opn, they would likely come through the Bering Straights, which is only 20 or so miles across. A massive missile salvo to keep our ships on the defensive, and then they are in Alaska. They then push South through Canada, and onto our northern borders. If they roll with enough armor, they could move quickly, and without fear of all the NRA members taking potshots with their .30.06's. For fuel they could use our refineries.

Since our military is stretched thin at the moment, we probably could not stand for long. The toughest US units would be the ones that saw combat most recently in Afghanistan.

The Americans treat any nation security threat to Canada as a national threat to the United States for anyone confused. In this hypothetical war constantly debated for some reason an attempt to invade Canada might as well be an attempt to invade the U.S.
