I'm waiting to see the first Chinese cars roll into the US of A. Maybe after that they can start prefabricating houses and ship them in kits here as well. We can they go buy them at Walmart. China needs to mint another million millionaires.

Who has done a better job for their citizens over the last two decades, Russia or China? Depends on which citizens you're referring to. But you not receive any disagreement that that "robber baron" kleptocracy that occurred in Russia has never quite been eliminated. But then again, there is just as much of a kleptocracy in China.
