Given the fact that future federal budgets are expected to be deeply in deficit, the Romney plan would appear to require borrowing additional money from China to field a Navy capable of more effectively thwarting Chinese military goals in the Western Pacific. That's the stark tradeoff that Governor Romney posed in last week's presidential debate, and it makes his ambitious plans for the Navy seem both paradoxical and improbable.
