  1. lol, the Boogie Woogie dude "butchers" all music. That's totally his thing. He takes pieces and does his interpretation of them. And, he always adds boogie woogie into it.

  2. lol, you Japanese? You should understand very well things on timeframes and the slow burn of asset devaluation.

  3. I’d say the number is 2-3x the official number. Total mismatch of labor pool now. Go back to 2000 and look at the births. Was around 18M. 2/3 of kids are getting degrees. Zero chance China is creating 12M white collar jobs per year.

  4. Every real estate project should be siloed. Separate mortgage and separate escrow accounts. If one project failed, the damage is isolated. Instead, they ran it like Ponzi scheme.

  5.  @junko4166  Slippery slope. Every company can afford a bit of shrinkage. But, then you wake up and realize 10% of your merchandise is getting stolen. Even if they can absorb it, why? There is zero need to import cheap non-skilled labor when there are unemployed Brazilians. Their UNRATE is 6.4%.

  6. For being a planned economy, the CCP does a terrible job at planning. 2/3 of the kids are getting a college degree. That’s crazy. The US is about 35% with a way more developed economy.

  7. Boomer! (just messing around) People in western countries do this as well.

  8. This is what happens when you don't have a free press, the internet is censored and information flows from state media. This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

  9. 1:26 Korean people figured out to use the wooden throw away chopsticks to hold down the lid. I saw this in the TV drama, The Heirs, in...2013.

  10.  @DD-ld1xq  The same concept if I sneeze in your face or if I sneeze outside in the air. Particles disperse and get diluted. This shouldn't be a hard concept.

  11. I was messing around with computers when I was 7-8 years old. My friend and I used to log onto BBS with his Commodore 64. I took classes in 5th grade at the local community college. Only had mainframe and terminals. I’m pretty sure we were using punchcards. Slowly lost interest over time though.

  12. The smarter version would be to install a bidet. I use 1 roll 1-2 months with a bidet.

  13. Totally annoying at times. I wrote a long comment (not this video) with data and they shadow banned it. It's very random.

  14. Skunkworks has been designing airplanes since the 1940s. And, Northrop Grumman since the 1930s.

  15. All these channels are connected to the Epoch Times. They recycle the same topics.

  16. The CIA had a huge setback 10+ years ago, but they released the detailed info on their rocket force 2 years ago. They still have “some” assets in China although much less than Russia. It’s not going to be a surprise attack. There will be “some” intel.

  17.  @GigglesClown  Literally, you are talking about hyperinflation. That ain't the issue now.

  18. lol, don't go to Asia. That flight will kill you. My parents live near Boston and I flew to Korea. Even the direct NYC flight on the A380 was 14+ hours (no connection).

  19. Noted past China laptop, Mark Mobius, said he can't get his money out. This was back in 2023. Billionaire investor Mark Mobius told FOX Business he cannot take his money out of China due to the country's capital controls, cautioning investors to be "very, very careful" about investing in an economy under a tight government grip. "I have an account with HSBC in Shanghai. I can't take my money out. The government is restricting flow of money out of the country," Mobius, founder of Mobius Capital Partners, told FOX Business in an interview published on March 2. "I can't get an explanation of why they're doing this ... They're putting all kinds of barriers. They don't say: No, you can't get your money out. But they say: give us all the records from 20 years of how you made this money ... This is crazy."

  20. Chow Yun-fat is the real deal.

  21. Who knows what the reality in CCP China right now. Gut says it's bad, but not as bad as these videos. BABA eeked out small positive revenue growth. Tencent had a decent quarter although domestic gaming was down. Small businesses likely taking a harder hit.

  22. If you are talking about something is a possible Black Swan, it's not a Black Swan.

  23. Without knowing anything, it would be realistic. Fake Q2-22 reported was 0.4%.
    2
  24. lol, the CCP reported new home prices went up last month. The reverse supply and demand principle.
    2
  25. Walmart paid <$3B for the 2nd biggest retailer in Africa. That's all you need to know about retail sales in Africa. Nordstrom has a bigger market cap than $3B.

  26. UBI is silly. It would just raise prices to a higher level.

  27.  @Alejandra-cv7rj  lol, the ruble doesn't free float. Also, the ruble was in the 70s in late 2021. The ruble in your lifetime has never gotten stronger. It was 6 to 1 at one point.

  28. How do you fake data? Pretty easily if you stop reporting micro data points.

  29. The "funny" part is...who are all these people ordering food delivery? and taking taxis?

  30. Used to take the slower train in Korea because I was only going a short distance and the HSR didn’t stop in the smaller town. And yeah, people aren’t allowed to stand in the aisle like that, lol.

  31. Dunno, everyone in the Soviet bloc knew it sucked by even before the end. These people are still brainwashed.

  32.  @fdm2155  Naw, I'm sure these businesses were slowly falling off, but they are stated owned. So, the heads didn't want to talk about bad news and covered it up. Eventually, they had to pay the piper.

  33. I remember when Chinese propaganda was making fun of the US during several bank failures last year: SIVB, Signature etc. In the modern times, no US bank depositor has ever lost a cent. “While the management of the banks in question should bear the most direct responsibility for the mismanagement of the companies, the absence or mistakes of the US on financial supervision and macro policies is the most important thing to reflect on from the incident,” the official Xinhua News Agency said in an analysis piece published Wednesday. Edited: grammar and spelling

  34.  @tuvoca825  I give everyone the benefit of the doubt as we live in different countries. But, nearly every kid in the US had to read Animal Farm.

  35. As someone that transferred schools in the US for the experience and almost did an exchange program to Asia, people go internationally for the "fun" of it. You aren't going for the degree. FYI...you can still go to German Universities tuition free. Norway just changed their rules.

  36. Always baffles me about their naming analogies. My parents made us do a lot of chores when younger. I’ve used a sponge before. Works fine with small amounts of water, but is terrible with a large amount. Is totally ineffective and will be useless.

  37. The CCP collects vast amount of data. Some data cruncher has to know the real picture. Easy ways to double check on the amount of people employed and change over time. I doubt the data is getting to Supreme Leader toilet god Xi though.

  38.  @bipolargamer99x  Like a bad relationship breakup, it's time. Asset valuations need to be reset. Need baselines need to be recreated. It's either fast crash which causes more immediate pain, but recovery can start. Or slow bleed and no one knows where the bottom is. CCP is choosing the latter.
    2
  39. This isn't propaganda, but a very limited slice of data. They are real videos and may or may not give an accurate representation. No one thinks they are the bible. Are you saying the people in the videos are lying?

  40. 2000 yuan / month in fees and utilities? That seems like a fortune for that area vs job pay.
    2
  41. lol, the tame version of a late night street takeover. On a serious note, perhaps the Chinese public are starting to realize that they outnumber the cops and the military. Only need 20% of the public to join and it's an overwhelming advantage that can't be controlled.

  42. You like 60? Do you even know what kids need to do to get into good schools?

  43.  @Al-yu6bq  Naw, government revenue is not ripping higher. Maybe the mix of wealth changes a bit (percent), but no one is making money.

  44. Costco sells gold and a lot of it. I'd feel ok buying gold from Costco. Weirdly, there is a trust factor with them over some Mom and Pop shop.

  45. The globe produces more than enough food.
    2
  46.  @Alakazzam09  Yeah, no. China real estate bubble isn't close to what happened in the US. It's different planets.

  47. 50 yen is 33 cents, but that's Japanese currency. 50 yuan is around 7 USD.

  48. Someone needs to feed all of China’s fake data into a supercomputer and come up with the real numbers.

  49.  @llothar68  Vaporizing hard assets...is not a positive for an economy. That destruction of wealth has real consequences.

  50. Not being sexist and maybe I'm imaging things, but the guy narrator videos are always a bit more insightful. The female ones seem like re-hash.
