Can take us over without firing a single bullet.  That is all.

Umm...no. If there is one thing we have learned from American history, it is that we are a bunch of greedy a$$holes so we would not give up. Also, we have nukes....

A few .50 cals can make a decent dent in the population difference 😉

They could not. Reason: United Nations.

How would that math work? If I owed $1000 I would still owe $1000 plus the interest on the terms of my loan.  You can't just say I'm upping what you owe. All my debt is under a contract. No idea where you get this stuff.

Where is milk $3? All the milk I've seen around here is $5...

We have a very well armed military, and civilian population. China couldn't physically step here if we didn't want it. Collapsed economy or not.

The US produces enough food to feed the world 3 and a half times over.

But what's your point to this?

But if people can't afford it, how are they going to eat it?
You do realize that our government has the ability to completely jump in and take over the economy in times of emergency? Also, our collapsed economy government could easily be rescued by going to war with China, just as it did in WWI and WWII, a war would make our economy boom.

Edit: THIS SO HARD :P

We wouldn't be able to afford it.  We couldn't borrow money, because no one would trust us.  After all the currency would have just lost most of its value.
NATO would help us. The UN Security Council might step in, but they would have to get around China's veto power. We would not lose a war to China, if they attacked, even if we had to threaten to use nukes. Even the almighty America was afraid of going into Pakistan to get Bin Laden because Pakistan has nukes. If we were afraid of a country we could easily crush, don't you think China is afraid of us?

All they would do is revalue our currency and come in as our savior.  They would do nothing to declare war, or anything thing else.  And do you believe that NATO and the un would be able to get actual help to everyone who needs it in time, or would even want to, when we are just diving in a hole with no way out?

Seeing as China is Communist( I think) and NATO is an anti-communist organization they would help us
