That's where the hard work begins. Can their system produce enough imagination to create new products like our system does?
You can only steal and copy for so long. After reaching parity with your targets, there's nothing more to steal. Unless you can come up with your own stuff, you'll always be a step behind.
If China reaches a level of capitalism where they can come up with innovative products like us, wouldn't they be us? They would be closer to us than they would be to the China of old.
