Perhaps it's irrelevant, but I wonder what effects the single child policy will have in the next few decades to Chinas ascendancy. The ratio of adult males to females is going to be very lopsided. Will the excess males join the military to make up for the family life they cannot have? Will there be vast emigration to search for wives?
It's impossible to say in my opinion, but it's interesting to think about.
