I'm not saying it is okay. Sheesh, how do you even come to that conclusion? I'm saying that in a hundred years (assuming no social collapse/revolution), China won't have these problems anymore, just like the US. Probably much less time than that, as they have a model to draw from already.

It's a variant of the strawman fallacy... draw a ridiculous conclusion from something someone said, and criticize the ridiculous conclusion. I love a good tussle, but a lot of people are really, really bad at it. Political discussion online is like the Dunning-Kruger Effect made flesh.
