Is China’s boom turning to bust? Youth unemployment races
to a record high as economy suffers sharp slowdown

Sluggish economic data from China is fuelling fears that
the country’s rebound from its strict Covid-19 lockdown
policies is starting to splutter.

.. . .

But ....... RFK said the virus was engineered to
ignore Chinese (and Jews) !!!

Thing is, China may come out of the Covid debacle
JUST as screwed up as much of the world. Even worse,
very heavy investment in biz/infrastructure the past
decade means China MUST make rather large profits just
to make it pay it off. That isn't happening anymore.

Now the MASS quantities of younger people ... NO
GOOD JOBS. This does not bode well. It's probably
part of why Xi is looking to empire as a solution.
THAT never works-out long term either ...

In the 70s/80s Japan went WAY overboard on investments.
It largely crashed and Japan has never been close to
the power it was back then ... kind of "hanging on in
quiet desperation" ... and now the kids ain't having
more kids, pop/future SHRINKING AWAY by the day. When
the demographic pyramid inverts, that's IT.

In any case, note that a declining China means a
very DANGEROUS China. If things get bad enough then
the totalitarian thing cracks and all hell breaks
loose. Xi is well aware.
