Does anyone see China rising while the USA heads toward becoming a 3rd world country?

Question

All the jobs have been sent to China. The remaining businesses are not doing well, because so many people are jobless and they outnumber the ones with money to spend on nonessentials.

Answer 1

No, not really. From what i read China still has some growing pains when it comes to economic and personal freedoms. the United States still fosters a freedom that inspires creativity, invention, and entrepreneurship. I think China is lacking this but making progress. If the US looses that quality, and some would argue that it is doing that, then i would see the talent and opportunities going else were, not sure if they would go to China... I still see the US as having too much to offer, both in talent and ingenuity to see it being a 3rd world country any time soon.. but who knows, you never know what tomorrow brings..  

Answer 2

In my opinion China & North Korea are the ones to watch..Military wise...

China is like Japan.....after the war ended, everything was made in japan, and looked what happened to them, they are far more advanced in certain areas (electronics) than we are, China is running a close 3rd or 4th.

China is more advanced than people think they are.

They export a h**l of a lot more them we do, that's for sure and that's good for their economy, bad for ours!

Answer 3

It has long been forecast that China will become number one, with either India or Europe as second and third by 2020 so it looks like America is heading for forth position!!

Only Obama with his desire for change could change that!!

Answer 4

yeah, but not one of those nice touristy 3rd world countries but one of those brutal soviet style ones.

Answer 5

I thought all the jobs were being sent to India but yeah. I'm moving to Canada while I still have a chance.
