This is treason.... 38495@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sun, 29 Jun 2008 19:22:01 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#38255 People get treated the way they let other people treat them. The same principle applies to nations: permissiveness inevitably leads to appeasement, and so this legislation is long overdue. I work in (and have friends in) the television news industry. We are watching this to see who on the Hill is in Wall Street and China's pocket, and who is protecting the interests of American citizens.... 38255@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Thu, 26 Jun 2008 02:41:07 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#34904 "Stop concealing the fact that China is in default".... 34904@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Thu, 15 May 2008 11:57:41 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#34441 Every Senator should support this bill now... 34441@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sat, 10 May 2008 10:57:10 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#34439 Every Senator should support this bill now... 34439@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sat, 10 May 2008 10:34:57 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#33954 This is a good resolution for the transparency of economy... 33954@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Tue, 06 May 2008 01:46:46 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#32417 Glenn Little, you should frame whatever he has. You have no idea what's going on. By the way the English were paid $ for $ on the bonds. The Chinese Gov't started the Salt Fund when they issued these bonds with the soul purpose of using that Salt fund to pay back the bonds. The money is still in the fund and growing. The Chinese should release it.... 32417@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Tue, 15 Apr 2008 14:07:20 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#31474 When can I find informaton on the British settlement of 1987 that is referenced by the ABF?... 31474@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sun, 16 Mar 2008 11:50:11 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#26130 Sorry kids- Even though some of the bonds still trade on the Paris Exchange and there is a group in Europe still trying to collect- the chances are slim. There are hundreds of bond issues that become valueless as governments change throughout the world. The Chinese paid the English almost nothing- actually were paid from funds already in English accounts. If you will review the history you will better understand why the Chinese do not feel any great drive to pay. As I see it; unless there is an economic reason that will benefit them- forget it and frame the things.... 26130@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 02 Jan 2008 21:15:41 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#21538 I really hope that Congress holds China responsible for their unpaid debts. This is nothing but good for the U.S.... 21538@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Tue, 18 Sep 2007 23:27:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#18491 An informative site - http://www.globalsecuritieswatch.org/... 18491@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 08 Aug 2007 13:43:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#18489 As China matures into a world superpower it must play by the same rules we play by. If they wish to be treated with respect then they must act in an honorable manner and pay this debt. Giving China a pass on this debt sets a dangerous precedent. People/countries treat you the way you allow them to treat you. I am glad the US is finally taking a stand on this debt issue and holding China accountable.... 18489@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 08 Aug 2007 12:49:20 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#18136 The Chinese are heavy investors in the United States, before blindly considering this a good bill one should consider the actual amount owed versus the damage that would be done to the American economy if China was withheld from our markets. What initially looks like a win for us good have far more serious consequences.... 18136@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sun, 29 Jul 2007 17:49:14 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#17036 The Chinese had to honor their debt with British citizens as Margaret Thatcher wouldn't do business with them until they had. China needs to do the same with US citizens. Call your congressmen/women and tell them to sign the resolution and make them pay! US citizens are tired of funding other countries and getting nothing in return for their "good faith" investments.... 17036@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Thu, 12 Jul 2007 11:06:29 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#16967 The Chinese initially said that regime change was the reason for their failure to honor this historical debt. The WTO and World Bank have consistently rejected this duplicity and apparently, so have the Chinese, as they have already settled with other countries holding the same bonds.... 16967@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 09 Jul 2007 14:46:36 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#16920 Looking to buy some of these bonds now. Can see that this is probably a good opportunity that may payoff sooner than retirement and social security.

This really explains what's been going on. It's time to take America back and hold other countries accountable for their debts to US citizens.

China says that they won't pay because it wasn't from the existing government. That's interesting because just before the US went into Iraq etc. China ran to the WTO and had them draft up protection for China's financial interests as they knew that Saddam was going to be overthrown and a "new" regime would follow. So China protected their financial interests so why can't US citizens that purchased bonds many years ago. What works for China should work for the US...... 16635@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 25 Jun 2007 08:40:36 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#16631 Does anyone know the reason the chinese give for non-payment?... 16631@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 25 Jun 2007 06:45:44 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#16536 China must be stopped from taking advantage of U.

You must be a member of the ABF and have your bonds registered with them unless China comes out publicly like they did with England and say that if you are an American citizen and have these bonds then you can collect. Some day maybe but that is not today.... 16356@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Tue, 12 Jun 2007 15:30:49 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HC_160.html#16317 We will probably find out that the US Government is going to trade their China Bonds against the US Treasury Bonds, dollar for dollar. They must have known about the payoff to England in 1987 and just ran up our credit with China to eat up their bonds since they have defaulted for over 68 years and were worthless. Hurray for USA a pretty slick deal, now obviously all the bonds have great value. Where can I get some of these bonds?... 16317@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sun, 10 Jun 2007 15:17:43 EDT
