Putting the China scare into perspective

Ronald Baily writes an article at Reason online showing the absurdity of the current idea that China is going to "beat" us. The real issues are whether China will open up and allow freedom for its people, and even if China does maintain its current economic pace, which is not likely, a successful and free China is good for the Chinese, the world and, accordingly, good for us. If China cracks down on its people when they begin to enjoy success and want more along with freedom, it will likely go the way of the USSR.
America,
