I would not underestimate the skill or intelligence of the Chinese. We did the same thing with the Japanese.
China and quality are not two words that typically go together.

Deadly building collapse in China | Video | Reuters.com
China is just entering the industrialized era.
Empire State Building took one year to build.
True story.
China is graduating an order of magnitude more engineers every year than we are. They are putting out a lot on money on basic research in many fields. And some of their companies are innovative enough that people like Buffet are putting major money into them.
It is very easy to point out the errors and shoddy products in another nation. We did that with Japan, until they ate our lunch in the automotive market.
I would very much like to see an engineering geologist's assessment of that hotel.

How many Chinese engineers are studying the problem of manmade global warming?
Bashing China out of economic insecurity or just plain racism...

Bashing China out of economic insecurity or just plain racism is foolish and ignorant. Chinese folks and American folks share many qualities. We can become very effective allies as China continues to develop and eventually becomes more politically open and democratic. HOWEVER, there is no reason for blind cheerleading and failing to point out the very serious and potentially deadly weaknesses that still exist there - including what is a superficially new and shiny but ultimately inferior infrastructure. Lefties in the US and Europe were beside themselves over China's quickly built and heavily financed high speed rail system until it almost immediately proved to be fatally flawed.
See what's possible with no unions and no bureaucracies......
