Thanks Don. The other bit of irony is that the CCP created the economic environment where real estate had been - until the CCP broke the bubble - the only worthwhile investment available to ordinary people: the only way they had any expectation of building wealth. The stock market has been inaccessible (not to mention moribund). Out-of-country markets are off limits by law. The CCP made the mess. Now it's unwilling to move an inch to clean it up.

The CCP could pass a law that houses can't be sold until they have a completion certificate then the problem goes away, but they don't make money that way, it's always the Chinese citizens who pay but then they majorly "support" the CCP!?!

Patriotism of Xinnie PorkPooh #slopaganda #misery #shillbroth #tubecensor - With stimulus and measures, China's debt will be at 400% to 500% of its GDP in the next decade, according to Reuters. -Chinese 🇨🇳 property Ponzi sector, which accounts for 30% of GDP, is crashing -Tofu Exports and Western imports, accounting for 37% GDP, are down. -Foreign investment is falling over 90% compared to it's peak in 2018. -Foreign visitors are down 96% compared to the pre-pandemic level in 2019 with less than 200 americans left. -Consumer prices and pay are experiencing hyperstagdeflation while necessities are undergoing hyper flation. -Youth unemployment hits over 21% (in reality 75%+ after eliminating faked numbers), a record. -It's fast shrinking workforce is 10 years old than neighboring countries. - During the years 1990-2021, the US printed 6.5 time more money while China printed 147 times. - It has printed more money than the US and Japan combined, while it's economy is only half of them. - Current Chinese debt-to-gdp is already highest in the world, at 300%, according to Bloomberg. - This is a macroeconomic nightmare created by the party going way back in 1994 when they took the Tofu money off the international exchange. Now in 2024, the banks and the average little pink have no idea what is the ACTUAL value of anything within the country. Any stimulus from the Central state. will be meaningless and ineffectual because the Central Bank is a part of the Party. Thereby merging both fiscal Central and monetary private policies into one ongoing disaster. Local province officials were doing stimulus spending for decades in tandem of the "Economic Miracle" which will undermine any Central stimulus during an actual depression/recession or more accurately.. HYPERSTAGDEFLATIONARY NIGHTMARE. -- in the future house prices will drop to 10%, youth unemployment will be over 90%+ without streams, and middle class people over 35 will all be laid off with pays trimmed in half. How will you do in a country where real estate companies, local governments, and banks across China have crashed or fled? That is your challenge for the future (will you own a trash house with the mortgage?). Pensions will be laundered and your daily pay will be 1-2 dollars while you drink Poop Water and eat gasoline cooking oil while the Party and Porkpooh eat Tegong Special food supplies.

It is tough to watch this video, but maybe watch it again to increase understanding. CCP often says it 'helps' people while acting exploitative and elitist. They say the people's purchasing power needs to be increased, but trails of money do not go in their direction. CCP should be the most people focused but actually they are quite middling.

Investing in the stock market is a long term enterprise, you shouldn't be buying consumer stuff as soon as you earned something, you should be funding your retirement...
