<<Amazon River of cash flow>> 22.000m3/second dumped into the Atlantic just to give you the right perspective. Year round. As soon as rain stops falling, snow melts in the Peruvian Andes and keep the flow ging. You're good at analogies MQ!

MQ describes the result of money flowing out countries that have no economic activity but have mountains of capital to economies that have economic activities but lacks capital. Picture that on a world scale adding Russia, India and Brazil and those wirtschaftwundern of yore look puny!

The pollution in Beijing and in almost all big cities in China is very bad. 7 out of top 10 most polluted big cities on this planet are in China<g>

MW, It looks like your observation confirms what my friend observed at Shanghai a couple of months ago and was ridiculed by clueless AC mike. IMHO, it is part of the greater cycle of world balancing/learning act. Asia and other exploited (for eg., South America) will see the light while the West adjusts its welfare mentality.
