The Business Of America Is War...The US Department of Defence is the world's biggest employer.

China on Thursday strongly condemned a $5.85 billion US deal to upgrade Taiwan's fleet of F-16 fighter jets, summoning the US ambassador and warning the move would undermine warming military relations


U.S. Senator John Cornyn, a Texas Republican, said told Bloomberg this week that he’d seek to force the sale of 66 new F-16 C/D jets built in his state by attaching a provision to a trade bill. The sale would support more than 20,000 jobs, Rupert Hammond-Chambers, president of the U.S.-Taiwan Business Council, told the newswire.

UPDATE: 28 December 2011

China cannot overtake US in Defence spending :)

I think the mobile wallet concept is same a the credit card concept. If you use credit card, you might try this too. The irresistable offers (Google will give you $10 on their pre-paid virtual credit card if you set up Google Wallet before the end of the year.) will make people switch from cash to card to wallet.

Smartphones enabled with NFC technology is needed for this. To accept contactless payments, the terminal must be ISO 14443 or 18092 standard. These terminals will usually contain the universal contactless symbol.
