It has never made sense for China to attack the USA. They own too many business in the US and just about everything we buy is made in China so they'd be killing themselves by killing that market. Furthermore, the US doesn't have the labor force (willing to work) necessary to build the number of products China sells to us. If you think prices are high now, think about how much everything would cost if we brought back manufacturing to the US. The USA is a consumer and farming country, not a large scale manufacturing country. Sure, there are some large scale manufacturing companies but they are dwarfed by what China (and the far east) provides.
