    Your thesis is that eventually Chinese will live extravagant lifestyles like the US and all own similar amounts of gas cars per household because that’s how the US developed.

    Never mind that China is actively electrifying and building incredible amounts of public transit so it’s more likely their economy will scale in a green way as people live more urban lifestyles, closer to what you’d see in Europe and even beyond that due to electric rail and population density.

    Yes if China was like 2 billion Americans you’d have a point I guess.
