China doing everything right. Manufactures. Export their way out of poverty, get capital, spread capital to God Forsaken countries, create more market for manufactures, get source of materials and do even more manufacture, create internal market, move to services. As it becomes the trading nation par execellence, it turns into peaceful clountry, creating good will around, as Other countries need its market, its goods, and its capital. China needs other countries, materials, and markets for their products. Compare all the above to the "action among friends" of the Anglos. Compare with their capital hogging, doctrnies and smiel and big sticks.... Chinese have the winning strategy

sold about 600,000 cars in 2000 is now poised to eclipse the United States and is on course to sell nearly 15 million vehicles in 2009. Make the connection to: this was achieved with an income per capita of "about $3,200, which is less than 10 percent that of the United States and slightly more than that of Iraq — and many farmers earn less than a dollar a day." Once China reaches income per capita of Curitiba (same as South Korea) you will know the true meaning of the word skyrocketing!

Washington can bring China to its knees at any time by shutting markets. There is no symmetry here. Any move by Beijing to liquidate its holdings of US Treasuries could be neutralized – in extremis – by capital controls. Well-armed sovereign states can do whatever they want. If provoked, the US has the economic depth to retreat into near autarky (with NAFTA) and retool its industries behind tariff walls – as Britain did in the 1930s under Imperial Preference. In such circumstances, China would collapse. Mao statues would be toppled by street riots. telegraph.co.uk
