Put it this way. Some lesser-than-intelligent Aliens from outer space arrived on Earth and measured the GDP per capita of everybody on the planet - they believed this was the best measure of the economic activity of the average human being. Would that not that overlook the economic strength of the Japanese or even the US? In the case of China, you're using one single indicator for over 1 billion individuals - you're forgiven if you cannot understand what a billion really is, you're only normal. China has a population greater than all European countries put together - shall I ask if that one GDP/cap of Europe is adequate for measuring the economic activity of say Germany? Anyone with a decent imagination if not a decent mathematical education will tell you the "average" of "mean" for a billion samples a very lousy measure for practical purposes!

In China er capita is $3,600, but that is misleading. The figure is much much higher if you take into account only the economically active Chinese who are mainly in the East side of China.

All rubbish comments. Karate is actually a type of kungfu (if you know what the real meaning is, kung fu is a collective term) or more accurately wushu. I bet 99.9% of people didn't know that karate was original called "Chinese hands".

Driving and group hierarchy? How are they linked?
Posted in: I think young people today have a much stronger desire not to be bound by a strict group hierarchy, so they just drive around when they feel like it.
