Yawn?????

In the 80's it was the Japanese that were going to take down the USA
economy and control the world economy.  That's before the USA retooled,
downsized and realigned its workforce all by the hand of Adam Smith and
before the Japanese went into a 15 to 20 year depression/recession.

Now the envy driven drivel from the Eurotrash types like yourself is the
Chinese are coming the Chinese are coming.  Here's a news flash for you.
Growth by China begets more growth outside of China for those able to take
advantage of it and whose economies aren't bogged down by layers of
socialist bureaucracy and lazy ass Union domination.  Ooopps that's you,
the empire and the EU.  Soooo Soorrry for your loss Adamsan.  Successful
entrepreneurship begets other successful entrepreneurs.  Instead of
worrying about China's growth, we encourage it and will profit from it.  So
will others in the world except the socialist EU countries.
