From the article
The world’s second-largest economy will grow just 2% this year, Bloomberg Economics wrote in a report Thursday. By comparison, US gross domestic product will increase 2.8% this year, Bloomberg Economics predicts.
So the US isn’t outpacing China, Bloomberg PREDICTS it will outpace China. Propaganda in action folks. :pinocchio-ussr:
It even gives a different number that contradicts itself later in the story. :tito-laugh:
The Bloomberg Economics call is on the bearish end of the spectrum, with the median forecast for China’s 2022 GDP growth still over 4%.
Alternate headline:
China, which has locked down several of the largest manufacturing cities in earth, still competitive with US economic growth.
Turns out keeping your proletariat alive and well has the potential for economic upside.
