The bottom 50% in China has double the average net worth of the bottom 50% in the US. This is despite China having 1/3rd of the GDP per capita (adjusted for purchasing power) of the US.

    They should be taking in predatory imf loans in exchange for handing over control of their industries to MBA finance bros from the West! China is just too good of an example of the sort of quality of life and prosperity the third world can expect when not being colonized by imperialists. I’m keeping my eyes on Burkina Faso. I won’t be surprised when we see similar charts with them compared to the US in a decade or two. Maybe less!

      Good news then. That’s exactly what China is doing. And doing it completely in the yuan as well.

      Here’s an article about China and Pakistan doing literally that.
