Japan is not on our side. The people in charge still hold a grudge about that little war thing. School children in Japan are all learning Chinese. Japan is fully onboard with China. I make China out for what it is, look at the numbers. And you miss the point, China is overwhelming us because of the stupid US policies of the last 40 years not because they are some sort of supermen. The gains you think China will take 50 years to achieve they already have and we are on the edge of the cliff.prairie2http://www.blogger.com/profile/12786636065591108523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3413656780589125141.post-65921550511652165602009-06-17T04:53:03.578-07:002009-06-17T04:53:03.578-07:00Ever heard of Japan? Japan&#39;s economy is the second-largest in the world (still), and much of China&#39;s exports can only be manufactured using Japanese industrial equipment and components. China&#39;s GDP is pathetically low compared to the US and Japan. <br /><br />I&#39;m growing weary of this tendency of Prairie2 to make China out to be something they are not. They have about 50 years to go before their level of development even approaches Japan&#39;s or the US&#39;s.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
