GDP (official exchange rate): $733.6 billion (2006 est.)

CIA World Factbook

IMF says that their GDP this year is growing at more than 7%.

If we grow at 2% this year, we'll add over $260 billion to GDP. That's about a third of their entire GDP. If they grow at 7%, that's about $50 billion.

How are we doing?

We're doing okay. Some of us need some help with their math. LOL!

Indeed, some of us do. You apparently have great faith in the CIA, at least enough to quote partial statistics from their fact book. Why do you have this confidence?

Thank you for putting things in perspective.
