"Has China peaked?"

Probably not, although I don't expect them to become the dominant world power.


"The US?"

We peaked a while back. We are a receding global power. Although I still expect us to remain the primary global power ... assuming we survive the MAGA years.

Economically, I'd say China is Stagnating.

The demographics that propelled them forward are already beginning to hit them hard.

Xi has been reverting to Maoist BS that, mostly isn't helpful.

Murder, I don't think China could ever be the world's dominant power. Some of that is just geography.

The US is navy focused, we have the luxury of not needing a defensive army.

No land threats, with two oceans between us and our enemies.

China is surrounded by unfriendly nations, and this is Army focused.

Plus, their sea access is fragile.

Sarah Paine has a good explanation of this.
