Default China's economy influenced by worldwide financial crisis

China's economy is influenced by the worldwide financial crisis to
some extent. It's undenial that China has to face the severe
challenges too. However, many economic experts view China a safe port
that can well survive in this great unprecedented financial storm.

Tell me more about these experts, what sort of bicycles do they ride?


Top-of-the-line Giant OCRs, naturally.

I'm envisioning grey bearded Oxford dons cycling in tweeds (with elbow
patches naturally) riding old Raleigh three speeds. Eh?


I recall watching on PBS, a Nova episode back in the early
'90s, called: "The KGB, The Computer & Me," (or something like
that,) about the technological adventures of Clifford Stoll.

He's an expert on certain stuff, especially planetary
astronomy. He was getting around on what was apparently
a Bike Boom 10-speed. No tweed, no elbow patches, no
musty pipe smoke, and no making you wait so long for him
to finish his sentences, like JK Galbraith liked to do
to people. In fact, Dr Stoll seems to be always "on,"
and very dynamically conversational. I was gladdened
to see a professional/expert getting around on an
apparently mundane bicycle.

Anyway, I don't think any economy is invulnerable.
No more than any network firewall or filter system
or encryption system. There's always an Achilles'
heel.

But I'm no expert.


cheers,
Tom

That's ok, the majority of the experts were dead wrong about all this
anyways. With the exception of Paul Krugman and a few others most of
them have egg on their faces now.

I wonder what the other blowhard pundits seen here have to say about
making fun of Euro Pacific Capital president Peter Schiff's accurate
predictions in 2006 and 2007 about the economic meltdown and its
causes? (Ben Stein should probably stick to his subject of expertise,
which is claiming that "science leads you to killing people")
