not individually, if you want to compare that you should probably do city by city

No you should do it by PER capita

@unit we don't strive to fight, we strive for an agreement

GDP PPP

having wealth in the cities isn't a big deal

since most of their citizens are doing bad

@unit well does every tourist that goes to china share the same opinion of trump?

you're not measuring the richest person you're measuring the overall average income

but that's irrelevant to the conversation dude

But what is your point

we were talking about how well the economy as a whole is doing, how much it's producing and how much revenew it's making. people in china still earn significantly less than the US on average OBVIOUSLY

Also tourism is good for the economy, why wouldn't they want that @unit

Yes but you're forgetting the basic economic system is put into place to help the citizens

it clearly isn't

but if you want to look at the whole economy

GDP wise

~~you are arguing that chinese economic system was made to help the citizens?~~

~~just to make this clear~~

~~this *is* what you are arguing~~

?

He said it clearly isn't

ah fuck im blind

by 2030

GDP

billions

USD

well yeah in this case, china is really close to surpassing the US

through this optic

ye

yeah this was the measurement i meant

sorry if i wasn't clear

@lola I think the only thing we can agree on is that we will disagree? Y'know whut I mean? ... it's like @Similar Scowl offered- my thought on that is when in Rome do as the Romans do... As for the economy, I just think 'the love of money..'
*Shrugs.. in any case if I were to be a visitor in either of your homes I would be a decent guest, if I had some kinda moral problem with ya I just wouldn't have anything to do with ya.

ye then you would be right

@unit wth is that supposed to mean

@Similar Scowl what was about Obama then?

How did you draw that conclusion

@unit so you mean like, if country A's government criticizes B's government, government B's should prohibit A's citizens from entering the country?

just to clarify

He does
