America First? USA spends $60 billion to counter China's Belt & Road

[Khan_21]

But you said 50's... why backtrack it so quickly?

In Alot of Progressive values China is behind US by 100 years. Anybody can make shiny new airports . India has shiny new airports does that make it better it than Scandinavian countries?

In this case how many years US is behind Chinese Macau? The world highest GDP capita holder.

Talk about Mainland China. US has a GDP per capita of $60000, While is at 9-10K.

If per capita is a measurement to gauge a country's overall strength, US is nowhere close to the top either. Macau tops the global list.

And 60Bn is a very small figure given the size of american economy.

Refuting that China was like US in the 50's is not nitpicking.

US is ahead in 99 % of the Social Indicators by a margin. If you want I can post each and every one of those indexes for you but it will only make you look bad. Again I repeat making shiny new airports is not a sign of development. China as a whole is a claustrophobic society with little freedom in any part of life. Everything is restricted by the government.

For Starters US had an HDI of 0.860 in 1990 , while China in 2017 has 0.750. So China's Social Indicators are today where US was in late 70's.

You can cherry pick whatever indicator as you want, but what you claim is nothing and no one cares. You better keep believing that China now is like US in the 50's.

China's HDI is similar to Srilanka. US is way out of your leagues dude. There is a reason why Thousands of Chinese are rushing to study and settle there.
