China Says Economy Grew 8.0 Pct in 2002
'China to Replace US as the Engine for World Economy'

Fundamentally, we believe that the U.S. government needs to devote more resources and put in place new programs to build wider expertise about China and to protect our industrial base from eroding as a result of our economic relations with China.

-- C. Richard D’Amato, chairman
U.S.-China Security Review Commission

So, China's economy is better than ours? What's their GDP per capita again?

Remember when the CIA thought that East Germany's economy was bigger than West Germany's?

You really believe China's economy grew 8% in 2002?
