Not that impressive given the fact they have 5 times the population of the US

Made in China..seriously?

 

[sacre]

And?

China will continue to grow and fast too due to their massive population.

As capitalism eats and diminishes the system over here, China will grow and grow and in 40 years time things will definitely be a LOT different.

That's pretty common. China had alot more population than in the U.S. I don't think everyone in the U.S. owns more than 2 smart devices.

China is a capitalist nation with a dictatorial government.

Are you mentally challenged? the only reason "here" still has a larger economy than China even with the handicap of having only 1/4th the population...IS BECAUSE OF CAPITALISM, PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS, AND FREE MARKETS, ya nitwit.

Most of them are Droids, so they are not that smart of devices. 😀 Sorry, I just had to get that shot in. Only playing.

 

[chumly]

I have the feeling that China just wants to appear better than everyone else, at all costs. And we're over here like "umm yeah don't really care bro, wouldn't live in your dirty overcrowded country even if you paid us."

Look at the headings of the curves and extrapolate them, its not hard to predict how the market will look 5 years from now if the same growth patterns continue.

You know each new born American already owns over 56.000$ in foreign debts right? China has lend US the most of that so if that pattern continue in the same pace China will likely end up in reversed roles.

We can now begin to see the success of the Global Economy in action. The shifting of the wealth of the middle-class and lower-class of the wealthiest nations, to the nations with a large population of lower income workers. This increases the stock value of the wealthiest people by increasing the demand of existing products from the new growing markets. As China buys more products than the United States to become the greatest consumer market in the world, then the loyalties of the business world will follow. The dream is coming true for all the wealthy and powerful business people throughout the world. Their money buys political power and they use it to buy elections and create welfare for the rich legislation. Imagine the wealthiest millionaires and billionaires that make most of their money through capital gains and only pay 4% taxes from their winnings. Meanwhile, they reinvest in foreign factories with workers that do not contribute any tax to the United States and create a fiscal crisis with record breaking deficits. We needed to increase the amount of manufacturing jobs in America in order to keep up with the growing population, but we are still at 34% percent below from the 1970's without adjusting for the population growth. That's six million fewer middle class jobs in the manufacturing business without adjusting for the population growth. No wonder in America we have so many hidden taxes and fake unemployment numbers. The majority of Americans and Europeans are on the same leaky boat.

When did this place become infested with communists? Not too many places in the world are still clinging to that pathetic idea. Cuba and North Korea come to mind.
