Is China's economy really the largest in the world? - BBC News
The IMF used PPP to come up with the estimate.
Also, in regards to PPP, China is 17.6 t and we are 17.4 t which wouldn't be the end of the world.
Like I said, in raw output, we still kick China's ass. Our raw output is over 16 t and China has a raw output of barely over 10 t.
I disagree with using PPP to make the claim that China is the biggest and scariest because, like I said, the per person is horrific in China compared to the USA.
Oh look, in that article, it even brings up per capita GDP.
Well I dare say Polgara, do enlighten yourself and read this article. I'm not trying to downplay China as insignificant, but the sky isn't falling either and you need to understand that.
