I do see China as a serious threat, but this does show that the nation is not operating at our level (although we are on the way down to their level). There was a piece here recently on the GDP of China and how it is now larger than the GDP of Japan, but how that really means little since the populations are so different in size. China remains poor and undeveloped in many ways.

China is powerful, but also fragile.

Powerful, but headed for disaster thanks to that idiotic one child program they instituted.

While we think of an emerging middle class, it's important to remember what most of China is comprised of: A bunch of illiterate dirt farmers so divorced from technology that the majority have never even made a telephone call.
