AJ, a question. You've spent a lot of time in China.

How do people there live on $3,180 per year?

Here, a street person who panhandles and collects recyclables out of garbage cans can probably make about that much. With that you can afford a bottle of Gallo Port a day, an occasional hamburger, and maybe a warm spot over a grate on the sidewalk.

I suppose that $3,180 includes millions of subsistence farmers who have virtually no cash income, and the like.

Do you have any idea what the average wage of factory workers is in China?
