> **Visual Context:** **Caption:** An Egan-Jones Ratings infographic ("Exhibit 1. At a glance") contrasts China vs. the U.S. across economic health—China outperforms in nominal GDP (9.8x vs. 2.5x), real GDP (4.8x vs. 1.5x), PPP GDP (7.1x vs. 2.5x), and wage growth (13.3x vs. 2.2x)—while the U.S. shows superior shareholder metrics like stock total return (8.3x vs. 3.3x) and return on capital (15.1% vs. 6.2%), supporting the post's argument that China invests in productive economic growth while U.S. gains are concentrated in inflated financial markets.

> **Visual Context:** An a16z infographic titled 'AI Finally Comes For The Call Centers?' showing year-over-year change in global call-center employment from 2010 to 2026, with green positive bars turning to red negative bars, sourced from Revello Labs.  

> 
> "I would like to see the Sankey diagram of what economic roles the laid-off call center workers have been migrating into.

Is it more commonly an equal-or-better job thanks to some kind of AI job creation effect, or is it more commonly a worse job?"
