Economy: Winner - United States

The United States has a better economy than China. The average income yearly in China is $4,755. In the United States, on the other hand, the average yearly income is $50,756 per year. Many of the Chinese citizens are in poverty and are without jobs. In China, the official unemployment rate is 9.4%. In the United States, the official unemployment rate is 9%. In China, there is 1,300,700,900 person population. That means 122,265,884 people in China are unemployed. In the United States, there is a 323,100,000 person population. That means 29,079,000 people in the United States are unemployed.

Military: Winner - United States

The United States has a better military than China. The United States military budget is 554.2 billion dollars. The military budget in China, though, is 215 billion dollars. The United States' total aircraft is 12,100 and China's total aircraft is 3,729. The USA has 8,848 tanks and China has 9,150 tanks. Compared to the population of people in China's military, the United States has a better tank to person ratio. The lowest age to be in the military in the USA is 17 and in China it is 18.

Political: Winner - United States

China has a communist country and the United States has a constitutional federal republic. A constitutional federal republic is better because the citizens actually get some power and get say to some decisions being made. In the USA, you get to have a citizenship by birth, but in China you do not. You have to gain your foreigner's Certificate for Permanent Residence in the PRC.

The USA will be the 21st century superpower. Although China is improving quickly the US will be an over all super power.

Military winner: Regarding military statistics the USA spends more money on their military. The US spends 664 billion dollars on their military. (2.4% of their GDP) While China only spends 147 billion dollars on their military. (2.1% of their GDP) The U.S. supplies is also much higher. China has 1,710 self propelled guns while the US has 1,900. Along with other things like 4,788 armored fighting vehicles vs. 41,062. 2,942 air crafts vs. 13,444 air crafts, and 260 nuclear war heads on stand by vs. 5,100 for the US.

Economy winner: For economics the US definitely beats China. The US has a much higher GDP than China, for starters. The United States GDP is 18.6 trillion dollars while China's is only 11.2 trillion. That makes a 7.37 trillion dollar difference. Another reason the US economics are better than China's is because of the import and export rate. China exports around 2.2 billion dollars a year while importing only about 1.6 billions dollars which makes them lose money. Where as the USA exports around 1.4 billion dollars a year and imports around 2.2 billion dollars, this means they gain almost 800 millions dollars.

Political Winner: China beats the US politically because they value stability. Stability helps because it keeps them lower in debt. They stand in around 4-5 trillion dollars of debt while the US stands in about 20 trillion dollars in debt. Also the unemployment rate and imprisonment rate is much lower. The unemployment rate is 6.5% for China but the US on the other hand is 9%. The prison rate is 121/100,000 for China and 730/100,000 for the US.

The US will rein supreme when it comes to who the rest of the world looks up to.

When it comes to Military the US knocks China out the park. In the event of a ground attack the United states would squish China like a bug. The United states have 41,062 armored vehicles, while China has only 4,788 vehicles. Also the US has 1,900 self-propelled guns while China only has 1,710 self propelled guns. In the event of an air attack China has 2,942 armored air crafts while America has 13,444 armored air crafts. That's almost 5 times as many than China.

From a political standpoint, America wins again. In China if you born from even one immigrant you are not considered a Chinese citizen. In the USA if you were born to one, even two, immigrants you are considered a citizen. Along with that in America you are treated fairly. The US has a democratic constitution that gave citizens rights, referring to to the citizens as the people.

Although America is better than China in these ways, China is better money wise. In China's 1.379 billion population they only have 3.3% under the poverty line. Meanwhile in the US 15.1% of the the 323.1 million people are below the poverty line. In China their debt is 1.391 trillion dollars worth of debt. That seems like a lot, but in America the debt is 17.91 trillion dollars. That's a 16.519 trillion dollar difference.

Even though China has a good part, America beats China 2-1. This is why America will remain the superpower throughout the 21st century.

Economy Winner: China

China will be the superpower of the future because the United States of America has lost manufacturing jobs and from the flood of Chinese export into their markets, China is becoming the world's manufacturing hub. They produce 5 times more STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) graduates than the US does

Military Winner: USA

USA will be the superpower of the future in military because the US has a higher budget than China which can allow the country to to buy more weapons and ammunition. The US currently has 7200 warheads oppose to China's 260 warheads and China has no chance to to catch up in that category.

Winner for Economy is the usa:

The usa is the winner for economy because of how much freedom the u.s.a really has and how much freedom people can do.China might have more people or a way bigger population than us, but china’s financial sector is way back behind our financial sector. Also our GPD and there GPD are know where to similar to ours. China’s GDP would be about $10.73 trillion and the usa’s GPD is about $18.56 trillion. Also the usa provides the citizens with much freedom such as bear arms, freedom of speech,religion,press,protection, and Housing of soldiers etc.

Winner for Military is the usa:

The usa has way more subs, airforce planes, and tanks. There is also about 800 military bases outside of the united states.The united states is more advanced and has more power as a whole country. In simple terms, the U.S. Armed Forces are made up of the five armed service branches: Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, and Navy. ... The Secretary of the Department of Defense (DoD) has control over the military and each branch - except the Coast Guard, which is under the Dept. of Homeland Security.The united states has the most elite forces in the world, for example, The Night Stalkers ,FAST, 75th Ranger Regiment,Navy, SEALs ,Delta Force ,Force Recon,and MARSOC.

Winner for Politics is the usa:

The executive branch is headed by the President and is formally independent of both the legislature and the judiciary. The cabinet serves as a set of advisers to the President. They include the Vice President and heads of the executive departments. Legislative power is vested in the two chambers of Congress, the Senate and the House representatives. The judicial branch (or judiciary), composed of the Supreme court and lower federal courts, exercises judicial power (or judiciary). The judiciary's function is to interpret the US constitution and Federal laws and regulations. This includes resolving disputes between the executive and legislative branches. The federal government's layout is explained in the Constitution.This displays a very complex of government and how the usa works. This is only a little chunk of the rules.

Economy: The US will be the superpower of the 21st century. One reason the US will be the superpower is because the economy of the country is very good. Only until recently, China has beat the US economy-wise. Second, people listen to the US. For example, when Hurricane Harvey and Irma hit this summer, many people from across the globe donated to both the Hurricane Harvey Fund and the Hurricane Irma Fund, and raised a crazy 44 million dollars . And Lastly, we have a size of population. In America, there is 323 million people as of 2016.

Political: The United States is part of all of the huge Allied groups like NATO and the UN Security Council compared to China only being part of one huge Alliance, the UN Security Council. The United States also produces the top watched movies and TV shows in the world which has lots of influence on other countries. Although China has the most exports in the world, the United States is not far behind.

Military: the US has the better military for several reasons. Yes China may have more personal, but the USA has a total of around 14 Thousand total aircraft space. China has close to 3 thousand total aircraft space. The USA also has more aircraft carriers as well.

That is why the USA will be the superpower of the world

Although has better Economy than the USA, the US dominates China in Military and is the winner in Political. China has one fifth of America’s debt. In USD, China has only four and a half billion dollars in debt while the US has twenty and a half billion dollars in debt. China has the world’s largest economy by purchasing power. The US has the world’s second largest although they do have the world’s largest economy by nominal GDP and China has the second largest.

The US dominates China in Military. The US spends $711 billion on defense every year. The second closest is China with $143 billion every year. The M1 Abrams tank has never been knocked out by enemy fire. China has less than 500 Type 99 tanks, which are not even close to being as good as the Abrams, and the US has 8,700 Abrams. The US has ten good aircraft carriers and everybody else has ten combined that are small ships that can launch helicopters. There are 8,400 attack helicopters in the world and the US owns 6,400 of them. Also, the US’s nuclear weapons consist of 7,600 warheads, and China’s consists of 260 warheads.

The US is the winner in Political. The US is constitutional federal republic and China is communist. So what makes China all that better than North Korea. The US’s people have freedom while the Chinese government takes their people’s money. The only way to get rich in China is to cheat the system.

China will be the future superpower globally. Economy wise, China is prospected to pass the US in many categories. China exports more than the US, and imports less, and they have the fourth largest oil industry in the world. They also are the manufacturing world leader, and the largest global trading nation exporting over 2 trillion dollars annually. Their GDP is still less that the US, $11.2 trillion to the US's $18.5 trillion, but is predicted to become the most globally by about 2030. China's urbanization rate is also poised to overtake the US soon. China makes up for 14.9 percent of the world's economy and is one third of the total growth globally. In debt, China also has almost one tenth of the amount that the United States has ($2.7T in China and $20T in the US).

China and the United States both have very advanced militaries, but China has slightly more resources, placing them above. China's military budget ($215.7 billion) is less than the US ($597 billion), but they still have exponentially more troops and more assets in their navy, and army. China's large population and dedicated citizens give their troops a substantial rise over the US, with 363,051,000 troops in their military, while the US has 7,502,690. China has advanced drones, and more total navy forces than the US as well.

China also has a slight advantage in political structure. China is very adaptive country and adjusts its system to cater to what is needed at the time. The United States have a much more rigid structure and do not defer from it at all, which can be a hindrance in certain situations. China also distributes political power differently, and only use it when needed. The US give political power but it is used more liberally and only the majority, even if slight, get to decide what is done in the country.

Side: The USA will be.
2 points

I think that overall, China will be the next superpower and here are a few reasons why.

ECONOMY

China takes the grab at economy.The expanding range of China's economic interactions has provoked the most recent attention.American media have taken note recently of chinese diplomacy in search of sources of oil.That means that they are taking note of how we are doing and somehow doing a lot better than us.This also basically means that China is scaring the U.S by how much resources that they are getting.China is estimated to not become the world's largest economy for at least a decade, but they are still better than us.We are taking over in GDP because they gain 1.2 percent a year while we gain 3.5 percent.

MILITARY

China also win in military for they have 2 times the amount less of GDP then we do but if they double their GDP and double their military budget that they will have the same GDP as us at 3.8 and will have saved more on their military budget than we have.This means that we are in a way losing money while China in a way is gaining money.We have also gotten into many costly wars for decades without break whereas China hasn't seen any real major conflict since war with Vietnam in Laza.

POLITICAL INFLUENCE

U.S is winning in this one.In January Admiral Harry Harris commander of the U.S pacific command said that U.S has allies that China does not.Earlier this month US secretary for Defence Ash center asserted Beijing "erecting a wall of self isolation."For the U.S foreign aid is an effective way to make friends and U.S gave 32.7 to financial assistance while China only gave 19 billion. This shows that China made less of a friend than the U.S did.

Economy China: Americans economy and international alliances are keeping it strong. China's diplomatic public relations are growing more by the day. China has overtook the US by at least one measure of economic strength which is GDP based on buying power parity.

Political United States: Admiral harry Harris, commander of the United states pacific command, said at Washington think tank "We have allies, friends, and partners, Where china does not."

Economy Winner: China

For centuries, The united states has been the world's largest economy accounting for over 25% of the world's GDP. But now China has greatly surpassed the United States, accounting for 33.9% of the world's GDP.

They produce 80% of the worlds air conditioners, 70% percent of the worlds mobile phones, and 60% of the worlds shoes. These are only some of the things china dominates in manufacturing industries.

Military Winner: United States

A Super-Power is mostly defined by its military strength. The us has over 2,333,000 active personnel, though china has more, China has a military budget of only 216 billion, compared to the United States budget of 601 billion. Overall The united states has a better and more advance and prepared military than China.

Political Winner: China

China and the U.S.A’s approval percentages are very different, but overall china is more approved by other countries. China is 39% approved 24% disapproved, and 29% questioned, compared the the United States being 34% approved, 35% disapproved, and 21% questioned. China aspires to a more prominent global political status over the United States, and China moreover more fit to achieving a globally trusted position.

Overall Winner:

Over the course of time it is apparent that China WILL be the next superpower, slowly surpassing the United States in influence, economy and very slightly military. Though China doesn't put enough of its money to help its poor people, China is on its graduate ascent to the top, to being the world's next superpower.

I think China will be the super power of the future.

China has the better economy than the USA. By 2028, China will have the largest economy. It's economy is growing at rapid paces and is already larger than the United States economy by 4%. Also, China is the largest trading nation. China exports items and receives around $2.7 trillion for their exports and imports items for about $16.1 billion. America makes $37.4 billion in exports which is much less than China.

China also has won Military. China has more air crafts, tanks, personal carriers, and mine warfare than the USA. China has about 20 times the amount of these as the United States. Furthermore, China has better manpower than the USA, China is beating them by about 280 million people for manpower.

Finally, China has won again in Political. Countries look up to China for building advanced technology, and also China supplies most countries with supplies. China supplies 124 countries with things and the US supplies 75 countries. Also, China has become more influential in the politics of other countries. About one fifth of the world is of Chinese nationality.

Economy

I think the future Super Power of the world will be China. By 2028, China will have the largest economy. Its economy is growing at rapid paces and is already larger than the USA's economy by 4% which China is 16.8 trillion. China is the largest trading nation since 2013. China exports items and receives around $207 trillion and imports items for about 10.1 billion. China has been the worlds largest exporter since 2009.

Military

Chin as military is also a very good one because they have more air crafts, tanks, and they have the best man power. China has 280million more man power than the USA. China has about 20 times the amount of aircraft tanks and man power than the USA. China was also placed first for the world for army main battle tanks.

Political

Countries look up to China for building advanced technology, also China supplies mast countries with supplies. China supplies more countries than the United States. Also about one fifth of the world is of Chinese nationality.

China will be the 21st century superpower of the world based of these three elements.

Better Economy: China

Although in 2016 the USA had a gross domestic product of $18.6 T, which was 1.7 times larger than China’s GDP of $11.2 T, from 2028 on at the average growth rates China will overtake America. China also has the world's biggest economy with a total of $58.499 T, compared to America's $34.102 T making them 3rd. The United States has a total national debt of over $20 T and it is continuously growing. China's debt is only $2 T making its public debt to GDP ratio 17%. USA's public debt to GDP is a high 73%.

2. Military Winner: China

The United States may have money and many vehicles, but that doesn't give them a completely solid military. The Americans may have more armored fighting vehicles, but China has 313 more Naval ships. Naval ships are much more effective than military vehicles because they can hold more weapons and men in them. America's surplus of money for its military weapons and vehicles does not prove effective either because the USA does not have enough manpower to use it. China also has more rocket artillery, self propelled artillery, and tanks. The USA is for behind the Chinese in technological advances and China has 300,000 more reserve people than the America.

3. Better Political/Government: China

China has a communist government over America’s constitutional federal republic. A communist government is better for super powers because it can control what the people do, making strong militarize and jobs, over letting letting people choose what they want to do. There is only one constitutional federal republic in the world and 4 communist government, making government communist more common. Although a communist country can take all the money from its people, it can use that money on making more money, military vehicles, and weapons. A survey showed only 34% of people approve of American leadership, and 39% approve of Chinese leadership.

The USA has much more money in their budget than China does which allows them to buy more weapons than them. We also have 7200 warheads compared to China's 260. Lastly Usa has a better politics because they have so many more alliances with countries and that is way more powerful than control over your own people which America has just not as much.

Side: The USA will be.
