It is expected to only grow by about 7% in 2009, while the other Big 5 economies in the world are expected to slow to a near standstill—or worse. Of course, China is only a semi-free economy since the government still exerts a strong and stabilizing hand.

There are several reasons for China’s continued growth presented in the article, but I found one thing especially interesting—most of the government leaders are engineers; they know how to work from a plan.

Could we have too many lawyers in Washington…and not enough engineers?

What do you think?
