dc.description.abstractBroadcast Transcript: As frogs are to the ecosystem, are breasts a bellwether item for the state of a market economy? Could be. According to research done by the Beijing Institute of Clothing Technology--yes, you heard that right--better nutrition and sports have caused the average Chinese chest size to increase about 1 centimeter over the past 10 years, and bra producers in China are scrambling to offer bigger cup sizes. Of course, in the more advanced market economies it is understood that enhanced breast size is not contingent on better nutrition and sports but rather on better surgery and bigger implants. Could China's true capitalism be heralded by the establishment of The Beijing Institute of Bra Technology? Or is this theory just a bust? #ceas #china #hacker #tsutsui
