China may not overtake America this century after all

Doubts are growing about whether China can pass the US to become
the world's biggest economy this century amid warnings that the
country?s 30-year miracle is nearing exhaustion.

No economy is going to do nothing but grow unimpeded. What's with you CU4? Competition is the best thing for us.

The goal should be to be the country with the best quality of life, NOT the country that has the largest economy.

It should be irrelevant whether China or the US has the biggest economy. It would not affect my life if the Chinese had a bigger economy.

BSB is right, competition provokes lower prices, more efficiency, more innovation.

So as SIRS constantly points out......you agree with a strawman argument....BFD.
Who stated they are against competition?

As i used japan as an example ;the thing about new tech is it still needs to be used. Meaning it doesn't nessecarily will be used in the U.S. and will likely be whatever countries advantage. Created in america doesn't mean made and used in america. One of the very reason people go overseas for thier medical treatments.

======================================
Who is "They"?

You started this by badmouthing China as backward and its people as mere copycats.

So long as the competition is simply economic, that is, of course, the way to go and will benefit everyone.

But the US, specifically the Oligarchy of this country, always tries to get the upper hand by hook or crook, like assassinations of Mossedeagh, the overthrow of countless Latin American democracies, and the support of dictatorial leaders and kings. This sort of thing is always more prevalent when the GOP is in charge.

Wrong again Professor Bozo.
I did not start this...read before you write!
Kimba was the first to refer to Chinese workers as "poor, uneducated, low skilled"....
but I know reality hardly ever stops you from inventing some fantasy world strawman bullshit.

I simply get sick of all the "glowing reports" about China when in reality China is basically a very poor country. China is backward in many ways. China has a piss poor ranking from the World Bank and is crying about their ranking!

While western countries were moving forward, China was sitting still for the last hundred years or so....Commi-ism of course made it worse.

China is now moving from a subsistence, agricultural based economy to a more manufacturing based one, but the western countries all made this move a hundred years ago (or more)!

But the US, specifically the Oligarchy of this country, always tries to get the upper hand by hook or crook, like assassinations of Mossedeagh, the overthrow of countless Latin American democracies, and the support of dictatorial leaders and kings. This sort of thing is always more prevalent when the GOP is in charge.

Or use drones to assassinate enemies like Obama does...directed by the Oligarchy,
Obama has used drones for oversees assassinations more than any President in history!

See if you can follow this CU4isaBozo. I said competition is good for us. I implied that you didn't want Chinese competition, not XO. Then you came in here and without reading the posts go after XO. A clue for you Christian, don't declare someone has WMD until you know that for a fact. 

This is also very funny: "Obama has used drones for oversees assassinations more than any President in history!"

How many presidents have used drones for overseas assassinations Christianbozo? Two?

Yeah, saying that Obama evil because he used drones is like saying that President Polk was good because he never ordered the Air Force to strafe Mexicans in the Mexican-American War.

General Lee never used machine guns. Genghis Khan never used poison gas.
