From reading this chapter i learned alot mostly on GDP comparing ours to other contires. This is to see how much we are growing compaired to japan or any other contire. In the begining of the chapter there was a joke made back in the 70's about how japan would one day rule the world, but ass there poplutation became older ther growing GDP levled out. This made me think, at the end of the chapter it said our demographic was geting older, just like japan was. bringing up the question, is our econemy going to plato like japans did as our age contrie's age incresses?
The change in what contry is growing the fastes switches constantly froum the US to Japan, and now china, i curious to know what contry will be next in growth.
