In December 2010 we introduced an interactive chart that allows you to make your own prediction of when China's economy will overtake America's. There are a variety of ways to compare economies. Our chart looks at their GDP in current dollars at market exchange rates. The timing of America's economic eclipse thus depends on five things: its own growth, China's growth, the evolution of prices in each country, and the exchange rate between them. If, for example, China's prices rise faster than America's, and its currency, the yuan, does not fall, then China's economy will be worth more, relative to America's, and it will overtake sooner.

A reasonable supply

Those who argue that China’s investment binge is unsustainable are overstating their case

TO BECOME rich, poor countries must enlarge their productive powers, mobilising workers, absorbing new technology and accumulating capital. They must expand what economists call the “supply side” of the economy, which determines how much a country can produce, and therefore how much it can earn and spend.

Whatever its flaws, the development of China’s supply side is undoubtedly impressive. It boasts an industrious, mobile workforce, ingenious entrepreneurs eager to absorb new tricks and serviceable, even occasionally lavish, infrastructure. The demand side of its economy, if China’s critics are to be believed, is more precarious. But it is hard to think of a developing economy that has been held back for long by a shortage of demand.

以中国人的智慧和勤劳，超英赶美根本不是问题，但另一条短腿要尽快补上。

经济总量赶超美国应该是没有悬念的，当然人均财富，贫富差距，还有经济活动的质量效率，以及楼上说的另一条短腿的确还需要时间。
