    China's Economy and California's Water Wars

    After years of delay and months of closed-door negotiations, a massive state water plan is finally out in the open. Does that mean it can be voted on this week as legislative leaders predicted?  We hear from Sacramento. On our rebroadcast of To the Point, China will soon pass Japan as the world's second largest economy, but it's not easy to cope with such rapid expansion. How long can the growth continue? Can the US and China afford to be adversaries?

On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, China will soon pass Japan as the world's second largest economy, but it's not easy to cope with such rapid expansion. How long can the growth continue? Can the US and China afford to be adversaries or will global problems require an uneasy partnership?
