China is having an 8% growth year.

Move to China then if you think it is better! You guys are so funny, not! China 8% growth is from an economy is pitiful by our standards. According to Tang, 75 per cent of impoverished urban residents are laid-off workers, unemployed people and employees in troubled enterprises. However, an incursion of rural workers into the labor market in the cities have made prospects bleak for those seeking to return to the workforce.

The country has 53 million Internet users with a population of 1.2 billion (the United States has a lot more users). Half the population has never even touch a phone, they have no infrastructure, no cars, no computers, vast majority of Chinese live in adject proverty, 18 percent of their population is illiterate, they have 6 times the population and a tenth, I repeat, a tenth the GDP output of the United States.

Forgive me if I do not think it is a good thing to destroy teh American economy to help China I note your citing of this information about Vhina actually reveals your true agenda. You do not wish for the American economy to be healthy all you wish for is a continuation of the capital investment in China as opposed to the USA.

Actually there are cars and Computers in China and your talking down of teh nation taht has run up such a high current account surplus with the USA reveals your true 9ntent. China also imposes high tariffs on American consumer goods going into China (50% in some cases.) China demands American manufacturers produce any goods for the Chinese markets in China. This includes Boeing aircraft becaus eBoeing was in "competition" with taht paragon of the Free Market airbus. I can go on but why bother. If China wants investment let it provide stable rule of law and civil liberties for its people. Let it institute true reprentative government. let it open its markets to the USA as the USA has opened its markets to them.
