PPP national income per capita in USA > 3-fold that in China

where China beats USA is personal wealth of the less wealthy as mentioned before

economic inequality

income: fairly similar & high for both

wealth: high for both, though USA higher

  Thank you for correction and other links. China with over 4x the population, has higher PPP GDP, but I misspoke about per capita GDP.
