You guys don’t get it. Those with the most toys win. In this case, the toys are natural resources, and Russia and China are going after them like crazy in Africa. China is flooding the markets with cheap chit, and the locals love it because they can buy things they couldn’t before. They are gaining sway, while the US buries its head in the sand. Having alliances are a good thing, and the US is losing out on the last place on earth that’s basically still relatively undeveloped. We need to be gaining influence in Africa, not losing it.
