Did someone mention laughable China-related economics?
In 2040, the Chinese economy will reach $123 trillion, or nearly three times the economic output of the entire globe in 2000. China's per capita income will hit $85,000, more than double the forecast for the European Union, and also much higher than that of India and Japan. In other words, the average Chinese megacity dweller will be living twice as well as the average Frenchman when China goes from a poor country in 2000 to a superrich country in 2040. Although it will not have overtaken the United States in per capita wealth, according to my forecasts, China's share of global GDP -- 40 percent -- will dwarf that of the United States (14 percent) and the European Union (5 percent) 30 years from now. This is what economic hegemony will look like.
The fact that this guy is a fake Nobel Prize winner is even more unreal than Obama being a Nobel laureate. He's besmirching the good name of Columbia MAs and Johns Hopkins PhDs.

Yeah, I know - can you give me a greater reason why they will fail if they follow that trailOriginally posted by DaShi View PostThe US was created by God.
That is because you can't look outside your little box.Anyway, that's about what I thought given your comments here.
With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

No, I thought you have no clue what you are talking about.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

Why do you generalize? Just like anywhere else, their quality is all over the board.
They are way behind in most things, but with 4x the amount of people, they are going to catch up real fast.We're sorry, the voices in my head are not available at this time. Please try back again soon.Comment

Actually, I was joking about the Chinese craftsmanship. However, it would be foolish not to be skeptically given the lack of regulation there and their track record.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect.

boeing and Airbus already build a lot in China so this isn't surprising.Comment

I'll worry about Chinese designed and built airliners flooding the market in any meaningful degree a few decades after they get around to designing a car that can hold its own in the European and North American markets."The DPRK is still in a state of war with the U.S. It's called a black out." - Che explaining why orbital nightime pictures of NK show few lights. Seriously.Comment

I guess it was actually spelled Mcdonald Douglas but at the time Boeing bought them there was a lot of talk about lack of competition in the airline industry because the world's three major airliner manufacturers became the "two major". Also here in California there was a lot of worries about job layoffs as MD was the Californian aircraft company and it was thought Boeing would favor Washington where it was from. Amazingly the SoCal airliner business has continued to do well though.Originally posted by OzzyKP View PostTry http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment
