It's heating up real good. 2009 China surpassed U.S. as largest auto market, now they have just surpassed the U.S. as the largest P.C. market.
How long do you guys think before they take over manufacturing?

My first question when I read this in the news:
What the fuck took so long? Christ, how many people live there, again?

My experience with China hasnt been good
So what does this mean? Thats its still a manufacturing hub, but not a center of innovation. People from different countries go to the U.S to enjoy freedom, a new life, and American culture. China is still a primitive xenophobic close-minded, short-sighted, two-dimensional, bland society, any foreigner or diaspora Asian person can realize this. The whole ancient culture is that, culture that is not actually theirs. A lot of its culture wasnt even invented by the Chinese themselves but by mongols, Indians, barbarians, foreigners etc. There is still a shit load of problems in that country w/ ethnic minorities, han ethnocentrism, corruption all of which i have witnessed in real life. The guys have no game which is guess is good. The system there is corrupt as hell and the citizens despite scoring high on international tests are dumbfucks when it comes to thinking originally or about their government. The guys are ruled by tiger mothers, and the Chinese businessmen themselves are greedy bastards w/ a tendency to cheat foreigners and back out of deals/double cross people without shame. Did i mention most of their technology is stolen from Americans, Russians, Japanese, foreign countries etc? Most of their so called tech is pirated, stolen, taken from other countries.
Various athletes of theirs had been caught doping, the weather sucks and is polluted as hell in Beijing. The Chinese themselves are also pretty xenophobic, especially against African-Americans; why Kobe Bryant would sacrifice his dignity to train the basketball team of a country that's complete trash in human rights, view of human life and that's racist against his own people is something I can't figure out, but money talks. You guys still have loooong way to go, hell i dont think there is even a way to go because you guys aren't become a superpower like the U.S
