I've been wondering for a while when China is going to implode. The most polluted environment in the world, a net importer of food, more corrupt than even the Bush regime, 1.3 billion people, most of whom are impoverished, 200 million migrants, prisons overflowing with dissidents, hundreds of riots each year, an economy dependent on the US (which much manufacturing moving to Bangladesh, Vietnam, and other lower cost sweatshop-slavery economies), and so on.

Some excellent points made.
