Had anyone read the book "The Coming Collapse of China"?

The book is written by Gordon G. Chang, a lawyer educated in the united states and also had Chinese first hand experience. What a nice written book with scientific proof that China will collapse in 5 years. I think he does not mean Chinese as an ethnic group will disappear but the dictatorship regime will collapse. If you never read it, I suggest you go ahead and borrow it.

Not saying it's all roses here in China but I sometimes think the US political system as we know it will "collapse" first with the tea party and other groups from both left and right.

China collapsing, or the US political system collapsing, more like civilisation as we know it going down the tube with the US and China leading the way. Buy, make, buy, make, buy, make, buy, make etc....

"...scientific proof that China will collapse in 5 years"?

What did he do - slaughter a lamb and read the entrails?

Really, you are astonishingly stupid.
The bottom line here is we must lower our cost base to make room for a lower margin product mix world and to grow our earnings going forward.

Only a complete charlatan would read lamb's entrails. We experts all know that chicken guts are the real McCoy.
