  1. The CCP might benefit from looking at the measures taken by FDR to mitigate the Great Depression. Government injecting cash into the economy as advocated by John Maynard Keynes has helped maintain the consumer spending that drives the US economy. The comments by Prof. Li Dao Qui match those of the US Republican Party. I am most upset by his attack on Carbon reduction. China is crucial to have any significant effect on the climate crisis. The most upsetting aspect of Chinese Economic problems is to remember exactly what it was the ended the Great Depression ... World War II. Having a war helps CCP resolve many internal problems. Wars consume manufactured products at a furious pace, and therefore increase employment and industrial activity. A war will also justify a sacrifice in quality of life, and distract from internal problems. To my mind these economic problems in the PRC increases the likelihood of an invasion of Taiwan in the short term. It just occurred to me that new kind of Olympics might help the entire global economy. People may think I am joking but I am serious. Instead of trying to demilitarize space, I suggest we militarize space and demilitarize Earth by a Space Military Olympics conducted at the Lagrange Points L4 and L5 to avoid increasing the debris in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) which has already become a problem. Perhaps called the Lagrange Olympics, it would avoid human casualties because all the competition will take place between automated weapons. Industrial capacity in LEO can supply the "athletes" in the LaGrange Olympics, and could also supply the industrial needs of the humans on Earth while Earth focuses on producing food for people, and caring for the health of people. Keep in mind that anyone could decide to move the military conflict back to Earth, but every country participates in Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD) strategy such as the US and USSR followed during the Cold War. All anyone needs to do is to drop a big enough rock from space onto Earth. That wiped out the dinosaurs in the past, and could wipe out the human race in the future. Perhaps such an existential threat to all humanity held in the hands of all humanity might cause people to respect one another more given the consequences of treating enough people so badly that a large enough group would chose to drop a rock on all of us, themselves included.
