Look at Detroit vs Shanghai:
http://www.thedeathofamerica.org/images/shanghai-detroit.jpg
Now read what Jeremy Grantham said in March 2013: China uses 53 percent of all the cement used on the planet -- not traded, just used. They use 47 percent of all the coal, 46 percent of all the iron ore. These are unimaginable numbers. And if they mean to even slow down to seven percent, it means 10 years from now we`ve got to find another 47 percent coal, just for China."
Oh Charlie . . . Oh my.

Finally an expert on China that knows the numbers in and out. Like to see more of it.

Sounds odd, think different, but true:
The total vibration level of all human souls on earth will affect the humanity of our universe. It is the time for all individual on earth to take his/her responsibility and liberate his/her own soul towards higher frequency vibration of love and compassion.
Please do not trap your soul into low frequency vibration of money, justice, power, fame fear and any other things.
Please help yourself with liberation towards higher frequency of love and compassion, you will help us all. At end, we are all together as one earth with one vibration. The total vibration level of all souls on earth needs to match the new level vibration of earth in order for us to move forward.
It is the time for government to provide basic needs of individual to avoid the trap of soul.
It is the time for any intelligent men/women to find some ways or means to help lift human soul.
It is the time for us to watch movies, which make our heart melt with love. (any movies promote fear shall be banned).
It is the time for us to listen music which shakes our souls to higher vibration.
It is the time for us to make love with our loved one with great orgasm.
It is the time for us to do something to help all being on earth with great passion and deep love towards others.
It is the time for us to respect/honor all lives on earth through love and compassion.
It is the time for us to do anything without excuse to liberate our souls toward love and compassion.
WE CAN DO IT, WE MUST DO IT AND WE WILL DO IT. Our souls will vibrate very high. They will nurture our mother earth and whole universe instead of distressing them.

'In the next 15 years China will have a middle class of a billion people.'
Oh oh.

Jing Ulrich. Very polite. Very well informed on how China and America are similar or different in business; politics; military power; ambition to create heaven, hell, or something in between -- here on earth, here and now; etc., etc.
It seems obvious to me, European classical music will prevail, not Chinese atonal sounds. Same for popular modern American-style music. Same for English not Chinese written and spoken languages. Biggest pre-global-workshop success, was Chinese cuisine.
So what do we make of the future of armed force and conflict? Russia and America can destroy mankind is a few hours. Soon China will have the same opportunity.
Is there anyway to LIVE except with the very strongest ties between the armed forces of America, Russia, Europe, and then India, Brazil, and some combination of nuclear armed states that will add to stability and global harmony?
Then we have production, trade and wealth -- median, top and bottom. Money as we know it will have to go. Logistics as we know it will have to stay. New advanced barter based on Info Tech and trade will have to make money obsolete. What money is depends on scarcity and trade. Nano Tech and Info Tech will end scarcity forever. All the nonsense about oil and energy will be gone in no time at all: solar and its derivatives, absolutely safe nuclear, and stored hydrogen liquid or gas will be used. Carbon will be used for all its better applications than burning. Industrial diamonds and airplanes come to mind.
So what must be on our agenda now? Kill terrorism in its cradle. Reduce corruption with honesty -- a much neglected standard everyone believes in some of the time. Welcome good health and all that goes into protecting it. The so called cost of health is not a cost at all: good health is a universal benefit.
Call her Jane Rice. Easy to write and remember. Combines West and East. We ought to invite half of the Chinese people to move West and East to spread out among the Occidentals. It would be a good idea to reward intermarriage to mix all continents until racial differences were rare. That might help preserve the peace and invite progress, prosperity, better health and better outcomes for better times through Chemistry. The chemistry of love.

With a Global Perspective on China and Thanksgiving:
It is not fair that I was born in the United States. It is not fair that I have a middle class lifestyle. It is not fair that I have clean water. It is not fair that I have health.
So on Thanksgiving do I pray that the world stay unfair?
Will China's great thirst for the same things we need make my future Thanksgivings "more fair"?
See I am torn between sharing and keeping my lifestyle.
I don't think I can do both with 7 billion fellow sharees.

Jing Ulrich is a very effective spokeswoman for China. She was not however asked many of the questions she might have been asked regarding China's economic development and role in the world. She was not asked about pollution and China's role in it. She was not asked about property theft. She was not asked about China's role in having supplied Iran with uranium for nuclear weapons. She is not asked about China's continual prevention of imposing tough sanctions on Iran in order to stop its nuclear program.
She was asked about China's non- democratic character and oppression of dissenters but gave an answer here i.e. slow evolution toward democracy- that is not wholly convincing. She presented a China all sunshine and light eager and friendly to cooperate with the United States. She may very well be right that such cooperation is in the best interest of both parties. But there is a little bit of triumphalism in the underlining of just how great the U.S. debt is to China. How powerful can the most powerful nation in the world be when it is so indebted to the second most powerful nation in the world?
I believe it would be useful for Charlie Rose to have a guest who does not promote so readily the wholly benign China idea.

Charlie, did you hear Jing focus on the internal stability of China? She said it twice that this is what China really desires. Then she also said that China is natural resource deficient and it imports everything it consumes.
So boom--there is the question--is China going to be able to keep the global economy from becoming a zero sum game when it lacks the natural resources. (They are laying low on the world's political issues while running around the world signing deals for natural resources.)
Since Jing did not address this CRITICAL issue I will help. Yes, it is a zero sum game because China lacks the natural resources it needs. Jing brought that all home in this interview.
We can NOT make another pizza nor a bigger pizza when China does not have the stuff for their own pizza. The pizza ingredients are limited and the most limited, critical ingredient is oil.
It is a zero sum game because the lowest common denominator is OIL.
20 Million vehicles sold and needs 9.5 million barrels a day, 55% imported--HELLO?! or is it good-bye?

This interview is 100% on business, the business between plant and dinosaur. Here is the story. Millions of years ago, giant plants with beautiful structure and juicy leafs, and giant dinosaur existed on this planet. Both of them needed growth and symbiosis. Plant needs resources for growth while dinosaur loves the tasty leafs regardless of resources. Then they trade with each other, finally leading to global warming. It is just a story. Not a good match, even a very little match because plant is plant and dinosaur has been gone.
So, what is the driving force for China? More than 2000 years ago, 7 countries existed in mainland of ancient China based on the Chinese history. They spoke different ancient languages and lived in their own cultures. In Qin Dynasty, they were united. Then fell apart, reunited, fell apart again, and reunited again through thousands of years. They failed several times. Until 20th century, they discovered United States, the feeling is the same as when western world discovered America. U.S. successfully approaches combination of various languages and cultures. Imitation has advantageous side.
I concern two directions: the first one is with modern technology, the growth of population vs time shows steep curve. That means China leads total people of several centuries to compete with U.S. Is that exciting? Definitely. BTW, is the global warming exciting? Yes, optimistically before out of control. Why? because the focus is on the elites. It is impossible to live in the past. But the modern technology gives us the opportunity.
The second direction is the evolution. Keep hope that they can find the purpose of original design 2000 years ago.

What pray tell is a "consumption economy," as opposed to an export-driven economy? Isn't that mixing up Keynesianism with trade policy? Isn't the question rather, on the one hand, a country which engages in free or reciprocal trade vs one with trade barriers or manipulates its currency to that end, and on the other, one which borrows instead of saving and making things?
While the US runs a large trade deficit with China, Stephen Roach recently pointed out the US also runs deficits with 87 other countries, and the Chinese currency has in fact appreciated by 30 per cent relative to the US dollar since mid-2005. In broad multilateral terms, he writes in a piece for Project-Syndicate (http://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/roach10/English), the "real effective" renminbi or yuan currently stands about 8 per cent above its most recent 12-year average.
Food shortages cannot increase food prices long-term; that honor belongs to those who increase the supply of money and credit without considering the possibility.
