China's progress over the last thirty years has been incredible. Let's not forget they have stolen their way to the top. A country which was basically a peasant class society suddenly has amazing technology? Where is the Chinese Steve Jobs, the Chinese Beatles, the Chinese Walt Disney? That type of talent does not develop in collective societies but rather in the West, which values and rewards talent. Certainly the West is having it's problems. But everything the world uses is from the West. China creates nothing, they simply copy and steal.
