Why China’s Rise Will Slow
from WanderLearn: Travel to Transform Your Mind & Life · host Francis Tapon
I admire and respect Ray Dalio, who suggests that China will replace the US as the next great superpower.It's dangerous to disagree with someone as smart & successful as Ray, but I'll try.Conventional wisdom is that China will blast past the USA to becomethe new superpower.In this video, I debunk that prediction.Although China has many good things going for it and will undoubtedly get stronger this century, it has two things that will slow its dramatic rise down:1. China's authoritarian/totalitarian tendencies will invite a Chinese revolution against the communist party.2. China's demographics. That's what this video is about.I examine Pew Research's 8-point report on China's demographics.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErOxGV-Ekd8FeedbackLeave an anonymous voicemail on SpeakPipe.com/FTaponOr go to Wanderlearn.com, click on this episode, and write a comment.More infoYou can post comments, ask questions, and sign up for my newsletter at http://wanderlearn.com.If you like this podcast, subscribe and share!
