Re: Re: Re: New Fuel Standards

There's the "per capita" trick again, this time on "average MPG." China's average income is about $6000 a year. Since we hear a lot about wealthy Chinese lately, this implies that most Chinese are very poor.

Sure, the average Chinese person will be driving some pathetic motorized roller skate by the command of their totalitarian government (which makes Tom Friedman wistfully envious). The people actually running the show over there? Not so much.
