The fact you couldn't quote where I said I wasn't talking about Taiiwan

I highlighted it for you, little pink.

You mean this 'highlight'?

So when you said China would catch up to "the islanders" in a decade, you meant first world democracies, not Taiwan?
.....

Anyway, I'm pleased you have abandoned your delusional 'sovereign Taiwan' thesis.

...as will the delusional 'individual freedom' DPP fools on the island, when the mainlanders are just as wealthy (per capita) in a decade, with less inequality than on the island to boot.

You are deluded little pink. I am merely waiting for some sense to come out of your gibberish first. There is not much point in discussing Taiwan's right to exist with you if you cannot even keep up with whether you are talking about Taiwan.

Why did you claim you were not talking about Taiwan after I pointed out that the CCP had barely changed the relative income between China and Taiwan over the last decade? And why did you then claim you did not make this claim? And why the several different answers to the same question?

But time is running out for them: in a decade, over a billion people on the mainland will have a per capita income as high as the islanders

In 2015, Taiwan's per capita GDP was 2.8 times that of China. In 2025, it is 2.5 times as high. Are you saying that in a decade, China might catch up to where Taiwan was a decade ago?

No, Im observing the growth rates in the mature 'high income' 1st world democracies slow to c. 2%. China will grow at double that rate over the next decade.

Quote:

On top of that, China has a much larger and more severe income disparity than Taiwan.

So when you said China would catch up to "the islanders" in a decade, you meant first world democracies, not Taiwan?

Of course, unless you think Taiwan will become the next Leichtenstein

People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.
