China has ~1.38 billion people
USA- ~326 million
- j7ake 8y agoYeah but I guess what is remarkable is the trajectory from 1990 to 2018
- Fricken 8y agoIt's been a very predictable trajectory. I recall reading in the mid 90s, as a high school student an op-ed that anticipated China's GDP to exceed America's sometime in the early 2020s. They're right on course to do that.
- Latteland 8y agoOkay, but the debt to GDP ratio is much higher in china. See my previous article, China 168% of gdp, us 45% of gdp.
