Factoid on China's Political Future

China isn’t going to collapse anytime soon. There are too many people living there to allow a collapse to occur. With more than a billion three-hundred million souls the political structure is a kind of fly-by-wire thing that if turned off would let the jet fly without control into the side of a hill or something. China will evolve governmental changes even with ad hoc structural changes rather than have a black out and fall.
There was a good book published a few years ago named Capital in the Twenty-First Century. The author, Thomas Pickety, examined some of the statistics concerning demographic growth and economic growth in trans-generational configurations historically. People should read it for data regarding classical economic growth (rather than sustainable ecological economics).
