LOL.
I always laugh when idiots trot out data that is 5-10 years old.
Here is Europe's 2013 numbers on each nation's output.
In fig 2.3, you can see that America's total output in 2012 is about 25% above Europe's and that both of ours are headed in the right direction, which is shrinking.
OTOH, China's is massively moving upwards and continues that growth.
And to take it a step further, look at figure 2.5. That is CO2 / GDP (PPP). Sadly, they do not have one with REAL $GDP, which is a far better measurement. But, regardless, you notice that:
1) EU27 went from about 425 to 300. Not bad. And in real USD GDP (not PPP), they are excellent
2) US went from over 600 to around 375. That is excellent considering that PPP is based on USD.
3) China 1800 down to 900. Excellent drop, except that it was done by money manipulation, not be efficiency. In real $ GDP (not PPP), China actually went UP, not down.
All in all, America is in the right place, while nations like China are total disasters.
