Please don't be so sensitive so as to stoop to personal attacks, after all this is the internet ...
Now let's study your links, as you obviously didn't..
National poverty line of 200 $? that's less than 60 cents a day, comparing it with Indias statistics at 1.25$ a day? Maybe you should know by now CCP's penchant to juggle data and quit being mistaken for a fool to wave them around .
By those statistics China has some 16% under the line around 200 million absolute.
So what was that about poverty again?
List of countries by percentage of population living in poverty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
China
CIA factbook + United Nations Development Programme
both list under 1.25$ a day = 02.8%
India
CIA factbook
-under 1.25$ a day - 28.6%
United Nations Development Programme
-under 1.25$ a day - 25%
Maybe the CIA and the United Nations are just too eager to slander shining India, OR maybe China is controlling information coming out of both organizations! lol I can't seriously believe that you are willing to imply that poverty in India is less of a problem.
