The fact that we had a 100 year head start on them makes your argument ignorant.
We are still very, very far ahead of them.
They're much closer to Mexico than they are the US. Do you have the same fears about Mexico overtaking the US?

Roger, you’re so unlikeable that it’s almost inherent that you’re not right. About anything. Ever.
I’m kidding. But if I weren’t, I’d probably say something like that. I think we’re good though.

They live in a fantasy land.
The US dollar has strengthened against major currencies for over a decade. Travel anywhere in the developed world and you will realize how far your purchasing power goes.

Do you actually try to change subjects or do you think we are talking about the same things? Which is it? Your chart has no meaning to the 74% vs 28%.
May want to look that up with the world bank.
Your chart has nothing to do with the subject matter we, you, Roger, and myself, are talking about. Not one damn thing.
They grew faster than we did using them. Yet you want to say that the USA would not have. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not it's not. "Why would you want to be poor like China" was the exact argument used by you guys.
Wait, you just said that I was lying. And then say that again.

We benefited LESS
Go look at the chart. Not really. We separated into our own separate tier of world economies and out-pace all the other developed/major economies bigly except Australia. Do you want to know what the common factor is between the US and AUS in this discussion?

They would make us poor by redistributing our money from more productive areas to less productive areas (often areas that aren't economically viable without subsidy, creating major economic inefficiencies).

Youre an idiot and cant keep your own argument straight.
I have. China is a upper middle class nation per World Bank. We are a High Income nation per the World Bank. You then followed that up with a what if based on a classification that you created. One that does not exist.

Here is the thread being referenced

I'll post the first response
Do you realize how impressive this is for the US?
Hint: when you start from a big number, % growth is much more difficult.
Hint: we started at #1 10 years ago
My chart shows the rankings of similar economies. It says a great deal about how the 28% growth is more impressive than the 74% growth.

Look at my chart, for the reference.
Nobody competes with the US in terms of the mesh of volume and per capita output. Nobody is close. We are in our own tier of economic dominance.

It is the picture in OP with a little more data for context
How is a table of the data in OP not relevant to the subject matter being discussed from the chart in OP?
Did you not realize that its the data from that chart?

This is true even with inefficiencies present.

The lie is that the argument (by me) is based on "because I say so"
My argument has data and logic behind it.

Is English your 2nd language or something?
I just gave the argument with data and logic and not your lie that it's "I say so".
This isn't complicated. How can you get so confused?

China GDP rose 78% in 10 years and we grew 28%. Your take away is things are going fine?
You have a dollar, you earn 50 more cents. Whats your rate of increase?
John Doe next to you has $100 dollars, he earns 50 cents more. Who is better off?

1790s and the early 1900s. That's our industrial revolution.
First Industrial Revolution (1988-1998), Second Industrial Revolution (1998-Present) is China's.
That's a 218 year head start. So yeah we are further along than they are. We should be. CITI says that China will over take the USA:
Rapid Overtaking. In this scenario, the key factors align to support China’s rapid surpassing of US GDP. China’s real GDP growth is assumed to average 5% a year with 3% inflation of the GDP deflator, both higher than IMF projections. In tandem, US nominal GDP growth falls short of IMF projections, expanding at just 3% annually. In addition, the renminbi appreciates 2% a year, until it reaches 6/$ (in 2028).
Middle Case. Nominal GDP growth in the two countries about matches IMF forecasts, with the Chinese economy seeing nominal GDP expansion of 7% and the US economy expanding 4%. The bilateral exchange rate shows volatility from year to year but cycles around 7 per dollar, its current level.
Slow Case. This scenario is essentially the mirror image of rapid overtaking. Chinese nominal GDP grows at 6% and US nominal GDP grows at 4%. In addition, as the Chinese economy struggles with high debt levels and a disrupted real estate sector, the renminbi depreciates by 2% a year until it reaches 8 versus the dollar in 2031.
In 1990s, China's GDP was 10% of ours. It's now 75%
And they are doing it with TARIFFS
