China Becomes World Trader Number One!

Kevin sends in this story on China:
For the first time in centuries China has overtaken the US as the world’s biggest trading nation, with total trade standing at $4.16 trillion in 2013.
The numbers are too big to verify, but I suspect it is true.  And about time, I should say1  China is the worlds largest country, and so they should be the alrgest in terms of trade.

And imagine that, a massive shift in world trade patterns and no world war necessary.  Let's keep it up.

Now if India can shake off the pointless restrictions it has in place inhibiting that country from making contributions commensurate with its genius and talent, then teh world would be an even better place.

All hail free markets!
