Nope! I just meant two things. (1) There would be very little net migration from a rich China; and (2) By the time 127 years had passed, the descendents of current Chinese immigrants would not form a distinguishable community. (Considering as outmarriage rates exceed 50% in the second-generation --- let alone later ones --- that is a pretty safe prediction.)

Caveat: there would in this scenario still likely be people identifying as Chinese-American in 2140. But that would have little to no discernable effect on their behavior or political beliefs.

Whew!
