Perhaps I should have put it under Economy rather than World.  I think the Bloomberg article gives us reason to consider that our concerns about China should focus on the economic downside, including social and political stability.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."
