The last I knew China was winning the economic war without firing a shit. 
They were aided by a generation of CEOs and politicians who gave it all

Despite the doddering fool who committed political suicide last night the 
massive gun ownership may keep the US government at bay.

or were given the classic choice of 3 years in the county lockup or the 
Army. Know any brig rats? They're the ones that can do 50 one handed 
pullups since they've had plenty of time to work on their personal 
fitness.
