"China...The economy is still growing at more than 5% per year. If the growth rate goes up…China will put a big strain on the world’s demand for oil and other commodities…which will make it harder for US and European families to make ends meet."

Some of the "upscale" families more influential in sponsoring media/propaganda--not all families. China's continued production and trade of products for natural resources from other countries (Africa, South America and many more) will continue price inflation in those products, which are inflating in China as well as here. Freight fuel and other costs of imports would also rise, causing further pressure on importers and merchants. Eventually, the trend will lead to opportunities for new, domestic manufacturing competition in the USA.
