So the Chinese rulers didn't think out the effects of their one-child policy?
It has been 34 years since the People's Republic of China introduced their one-child policy, a population control measure that restricts the reproductive practices of married couples. But as the Chinese government continues to proclaim the policy as being a tremendous success, the one-child rule has also introduced a slew of unforeseen problems, ranging from widespread female infanticide to alleged personality deficits. And looking ahead to its long term effects, it's becoming increasingly clear that China is about to confront an entirely new set of problems.
Huh. China for 34 years isn't working out?
Huh.
Oh, and this may have an effect on that whole China surpassing America idea.
