War with the West would disrupt it's major source of income. It would put pressure many Chinese workers in factories to halt or severely cut production because of fewer markets for their products.

But that's only in numbers. I can almost guarrentee that if you gave 100 U.S. soldiers the exact same equipment and cover as 100 Aussie or English soldiers the yanks would lose everytime.

The USA only wins so much because of technology. We're developing (and probably already using > > materials that can make something invisible by bending light around that object and making it almost invisible. The secret government agencies in the USA have some amazing tech.
well china's economic growth just hit 8% last quarter. So I'd have to stick with china, with 8T dollars in GDP it is currently 3rd in production output.
i believe in 2015 80% world business can't live without China, "Giant Octopus" quarter of earth population is Chinese. They work like ants and cheap.
