    Again, compared to the west, China is still a poor country. Yes it is growing, and that growth has been very impressive, and there is much we can all learn from it. But to claim that China has surpassed the west in terms of eliminating poverty is simply incorrect.

    You are making a moral argument, to which I am marginally sympathetic, and backing it up with bad information.
