It is said the Chinese plan out 100 and 1000 years.
Why not continue the extrapolation past 2050 and 2100, it might provide sound bites with more teeth "One person to control 99% of wealth by date 20XX".
- niccccccccc 9y agoYup I am sure China planned to be up to their eyeballs in debt, their money flooding out to Canada and Australia, and cultural revolution 2.0 underway. Yup, all planned out
- mooneater 9y agoObviously real world plans cannot be perfectly executed. But the act of planning itself, provides the long term perspective badly missing from the western point of view. That is my point.
- mooneater 9y agoNot saying this because Im a huge fan of china. Just a fan of thinking long-term.
