We're #2! We're #2! We're #2!
So as of today, China has overtook the USA in terms of being the economic power in the world.

China's economy is a bigger pack of lies than America's.
Through outside extrapolation on imports/exports/energy use, rather than state bs, China's economy is stagnant to contracting. Nothing close to their absurd growth claims. Also, politics...

Not surprised.
We've given it to them one microwave at a time for the last twenty years. Tennis shoes and crappy plastic toys and every bath towel and POS coffee pot and child's toy. Am I still allowed to have my rant if I drive a new car and carry an iPhone..?

Sorry, I don't understand the worry. In any group of measurement some one or something has to be first. If the thing that was first is removed there is still a new first. Remove the tallest person from the room and there is still a tallest person in the room. (Unless there was only one person in the room.)

Historically, when a nation fails the first thing to go is their economy.
