China Needs a New Economic Model That the CCP Cannot Deliver: Ian Williams

[@menotred5026]

If Brits are so good at knowing what’s wrong, how come UK is failing ??

[@ssuwandi3240]

Contracting isn't failing. Mostly due to the fluff of NetZero effects.

[@kennethkong5484]

On Point

[@donaldjoseph3903]

The answer is very simple and well known for the longest time. The best and brightest aren't in politics..UK isn't really failing either, but it is true UK can do better..

[@DoubtingTom]

Very to the point, the book is excellent!

You did not mention that one feature of Chinese economic policy is to lift its people from poverty. Chinese economic policy is based on their version of socialism.

Our economic indicators are so reliable here in the US. We have extremely low unemployment with labor participation rates at decade lows. We have exceptional growth and a strong labor market despite majority of families finding it difficult to pay for groceries. I find western economic statistics about the economy to be more manipulated than China's. At least in China you can go there and see that what was recently a fishing village is now a bustling city with millions of inhabitants. In the West we somehow have stable economic growth in cities with empty factories, homeless encampments and sky rocketing drug addiction. So which country is fabricating their growth? In America there is a strong correlation between economic growth and a rise in poor real-world outcomes like homelessness, addiction, factory closures, low labor participation. That makes absolutely no sense. Also can we accept that the US has tons of vassal states around the world including Japan and most of Europe. Those countries have less independence militarily and economically than any countries bordering China. Everything said here seems so blind to how the world operates. Mr. Williams describes China acting like pretty much every other country - but he does so in breathless terms and hyperbole. You could make the same argument for the US on most if not all of his points. Case and point - he refers to China's one-month long intervention in Vietnam in 1979 as if that is the defining moment in Vietnam's modern history... not the French and US intervention that lasted 20 years and killed over 1 million Vietnamese people. Give me a break. This guy is useless at putting things into perspective. He's just peddling lies and manipulation.

He's late to the party. People have been saying this for a decade or more...but please enlighten me with your boundless knowledge of mainland China. I only spent 4 years there.

[@ssuwandi3240]

Well thanks Jimmy Carter and the rest of Democrats Presidents including current Bidenomics!! Where do you think the CHIPS Act money went to? The recent audit proved the money was not spent in the US!! They retracted and cancelled the line of credit including the grants. Thanks to 81 million Democrats voters!

Keep underestimating the Chinese and they'll keep surprising you.

Why interview an novel writer instead of a economist ?

China still pulling in huge foreign payments based on exports; many countries would love to have this "problem"😊

[@happychappy7115]

Finally a balanced look at China😊

[@Waverlyduli]

With more problems than solutions the long aggrieved even docile get feisty. When China's totalitarians get fully unappreciated it'll be interesting to look at a true account of their cult and its impact on Chinese. Ian Williams has an insightful take on China. His 'Vampire State' is the best book title of 2024: an appropriate descriptor of both the regime's economic strategy and human rights record.

[@karim3163]

Propaganda

[@anrau6278]

Wow any criticism of the CCP and nuanced debate about economic growth prospects gets immediately criticised by “random” comments

[@youknowwho5900]

Nuanced? Debate? Puzzled where you found both. And yes, I am random. YT recommended. I clicked mildly curious. Same ol' same one-sided anti-China bashing and denial. Arrogant and snobbish. Something you seem to call 'nuanced'.

The Chinese tapped my "cellular module" and know that I shopped at Costco, drove 3 mph over the speed limit on hwy 77, and that I have a few Elvis songs on my Spotify playlist.

He should stop worrying about China’s impending collapse and start worrying about Europe’s existing collapse. Every week I learned new innovations from China; from new fastest train and 6G satellite communication. I don’t remember the last time I heard any innovations coming from Britain 🤔.

China is just slowing a little bit but it will accelerate once again. Chinese people has so much savings in the bank, the government problem is how let them spend😂😂. Chinese are very educated now, very hardworking, and financially literate, they will accelerate again and the whole world will marvel.
