Except the orders of magnitudes you are suggesting are nowhere near the current situation regarding CO2 emissions.

We're talking about 16T per capita in the US vs almost 7T in China.

So it's more like Stealing 200$ vs 100$.

Only because the CO2 emitted by producing then exporting the goods that are eventually consumed elsewhere are accounted on China rather than on wherever they are consumed, right? Or has Chinese lifestyle become more wasteful than US'?
