I'll give you an example. Americans (US citizens) eat 114 kg (or 251 pounds) of meat yearly on average. Chinese eat on average 42kg (or 93 pounds) of meat. It's almost 1/3 (actually it's 37%). Americans are over eating,

Still the problem is not that the Chinese government owns it, but that the people in US cannot stop using it and give it to kids to use unsupervised, despite being owned by the Chinese government. OTOH people in China don't.
