re <<High-technology exports>>

- folks sometimes put whatever i note through some sort of nationalism lens, not realising am french creole hakka chinese trinidadian, and maybe i am just noting the overarching macro so that my family and friends can do better by considering the note.

- at age 15 (1975 - way early days, before systemic china reform was even a whisper) a lady friend's dad asked me what i wished to do when i reach adulthood, and i noted live next to the beach in hong kong and work in china. here i am, living next to the beach in hong kong, but squeezed out of china by internal competition.

- at age 24 (1984 - at onset of china systemic reform, when the only game was cheap labour) i started traveling on weekly basis to china, and thought i represented a germ for which china had no immune capability, and folks like me and i would change the society. the society has changed beyond my expectations in 1975, 1984, 1991, 1993, 1998, 2001, 2004, 2010, and 2014. so far so good, for the greater good.

- now i figure we must not be surprised unless / until china gdp accounts for 36% of global gdp

- 2026 through 2032 should be very interesting

- i figure portable nuclear reactors, quantum telecom services, space mining, geo-forming, interconnectivity, social services, 24/7/365 trading, etc etc should beat t-shirts and plastic flowers per effective labour, plentiful capital, and inexpensive IP

- and certainly should beat bombs, more bombs, and still more bombs
