Mr. Peter Schaeffer, how useful is China's manufacture to the world compared to the economic output of US? That is the point.

I am from india and India produces some of the products that are unheard of in the developed world, all thanks to it's pathetic electric supply.



Example: Inverters - Acid battery electricity storage and delivery units that convert AC current into direct current, store them in Lead acid batteries and release them back to the house electric grid in AC form, when the there are regular power shut downs.

UPS units: (Uninterrupted Power Supply): So that, when the power goes, there are no nano-second disruptions in power supply in the domestic grids/ Computers etc.



Voltage stabilizers: That regulate the erratic power supply from the public grid and feed controlled power (proper voltage and frequency) into equipments.

In my home I have one inverter with tho Lead acid storage batteries, Two UPS's with one Lead acid storage batteries each and two voltage stabilizers - go figure!

India is a world leader in them, so what?

I am not saying that what China produces has no value. That is why we have economics and markets. That is where the relative value of output gets measured. If you feel markets are not good to measure economic output, try to improve them. Do not go and compare amount of steel used to compare economic strength of economies.
