No dip their military is larger than ours nominally... Look at the size of their country! Numbers don't necessarily make or break a country in the context of military power. Moreover, China's economy is indeed growing quickly and could possibly overtake ours in the future, but these estimates are not yet fact and should not be treated as such.

This is not to say that the U.S. is and shall remain the "world's most epic"; though we have a much higher standard of living than the rest of the world, in the near future we are going to receive a sobering reality check in that department when our government gets its head out of its ass and realizes it's already spent too much money and needs to pull back >.>
