Yeah, South Korea is doing REALLY well right now. Speaking as someone who has South Korean roots. @@
Yes, they are starting from huge self-inflicted wounds, which you accurately quantify. My own personal view is that China is not fixable. I don't think it has a bright future. It's Japan with less education, less innovation, and a bigger biological time bomb. That doesn't change the fact that I respect the heck out of its modern day government post-Deng Xiaoping. They were dealt a horrible hand, and they are staying in the game longer than I thought possible.
