The Rise and Fall of the East

The rise and fall of the East comes just a tad bit after the rise and fall of the West. All that to say that the next 20-30 years is going to get real interesting. China is losing 800,000,000 people in the largest population bomb in the history of the world. Will the population bomb yield to the other bomb, as tensions rise in the east? Why did our federal government fail to do the one thing it was supposed to do since Reagan suggested Star Wars Defense?
