Given how much China cooks the books on growth, it's economy has probably been in negative numbers for the last two years at least.

And with Xi being a committed Maoist, the economy is not going to get better any time soon.

China's exports are easily verifiable and growing very fast.

And mindlessly sacrificing your people in the name of growth does that too.

No they don't the country is it's workers and the country serves them not the other way around. 


Quote:and their economy was slowing down at the same time. Interesting.
Their many factors in the slow down that assessment is simplistic and reductive 


Quote:Wrong. China's private sector generates 60% of GDP.
Which means 40% of it is not private i can all the  capitalists gasping in horror 


Quote:I'm using standard conservative arguments.
The Kremlin is right wing 


Quote:Why don't you move to France or Sweden?
Why should he have to?


Quote:German economy took 20 years to grow by 25%. It takes China 3 years to do the same.
Yup and trail of bodies and human rights violation to achieve that is simply would give any tyrant a boner.


Quote:China is going to invade Taiwan soon.
They don't have the balls.

I was about to ask him who told him that exports = GDP
Especially since his own link showed TWO graphs:
 
  • Absolute worth of exports / $
  • (Exports/GDP) / %
It also showed that, while exports may have grown the PERCENTAGE of exports in relation to that GDP has been on the decline since 2006.
The link he posted even provides a graph showing (total = im + export) trade as a % of GDP. It has been going down from >60% to >35% since 2006

He does not really seem to read (or comprehend) the links he posts himself. Its shocking, i know. Read

It took Warren Buffet/Bezos/etc 3 years to grow their wealth by 50%. The beggar on the street where i live managed to do that in a single day!! I just gave him a Euro.
Right after WWII* the German economy was growing with stellar numbers! They must have been doing things SO much better way back then.

*when German econony was nearly non-existent

You seem to be pretty bad at math and logic. If exports are growing fast and share of exports is falling then total GDP is growing even faster.
