China Hysteria: Manufactured Threat or Inevitable Rival?

That's not what I asked.

You seem to have it confused with the type of bot designed to perform a service for mankind.

That's not what I asked.

Well of course its not what you asked because you are implying that older populations dont make a difference in the economic power of a country.

For China's economic system to work they need about 20 younger people to support 1 retired person so that person gets to eat.

They dont have a financial system sector or a high technology sector they have a lot of low wage and low profit margin workers.

Their working population is fleeing the country and aging out of the workforce though and its not being replaced.

Their plan to economically collapse other countries and expand into them isnt working either. The countries neighboring China's empire have resisted their invasions and economic coercion.

Well of course its not what you asked...

... because your inventor decided not enough assholes occur naturally in nature.

I can't fathom how you could possibly have gotten that from anything I have said.

I thought it based on your lack of delineation. My bad bro sorry for assuming that.

China is going through a revolutionary period so its not impossible.

The battle for the soul of the Chinese people is being fought it can be described selfishness versus selflessness.

Selfishness is the undisputed champion of the world but there are many people willing to die on the hill if selflessness.

I wouldn't count selfishness out yet. You must give the devil his due.

What is their actual population? A mere 900 million?

The best estimates range from 500 million to 1 billion.
But definitely not 1.4 billion.
And it's aging and dropping faster every year, soon there won't be enough workers to support the elders.
