In this pessimistic view, China will soon replace America as the world's predominant power...
Yet even Beijing's miraculous 30-year leap out of poverty into first-world affluence and Westernized power is hardly the same as parity with the U.S...
- China has roughly four times the population of the U.S., but produces only about 60 percent of our total GDP.
- A crude way of looking at this asymmetry is that one U.S. citizen accounts for 40 percent more goods and services than his four Chinese counterparts.
- Americans enjoy a per capita GDP (roughly $95,000) over six times higher than China's (roughly $15,000)...

Just a reminder--if you need one--on why we're at war with Iran...

- What part of: "Iran can't be allowed to have nuclear weapons" do people like Megyn and Tucker not understand?
Talk about a bipartisan issue.
What OTHER issue has there been where eight, count them EIGHT, successive US presidents have drawn the same red line: "Iran can't be allowed to have nuclear weapons."
Meanwhile, despite 50 years of lying about it, Iran has been marching inexorably towards full atomic-weapons capability, getting closer every day, no mater what silly pieces of paper they might sign with silly people like John Kerry.
