TFW China made this extra GDP on special zones that practice Capitalism
TFW China is transitioning to Capitalism in economic
TFW Communist parts of China are still dirt poop and people are starving

>3 times the population of america
>8% more GDP

Doesn't sound like they're better at it to me.

If you go nominal the US has $7 Trillion more in GDP than China.

China is communist only in name. It's economy is as capitalist as it gets.

>Using PPP as a measure of wealth

Basically saying that they're so poor that they're rich. Which makes absolutely no sense when looking at a global scale.

PPP is what you look at when deciding where to buy a house, not in determining the wealth of nations.

Yes. The gap between rich and poor countries using PPP is very significantly lowered because PPP is based on cost of living. If you live in a poor nation your cost of living will be low. Therefore, you're going to have a higher PPP. It's literally paradoxical to use when comparing the difference in wealth between two nations.

Aren't you agreeing with dangler? Why are people thumbing him down and those same people are thumbing you up?

Because people are stupid.

Exept that china fakes its GDP growth.

This is true.
