  1. China's economy is much worse than people are reporting. Unemployment is rising. 16 -24 year old unemployment is 20% Unemployed people are not huge consumers. They do not buy homes. They do not get married or have children. Individuals, foreign corporations and investors are fleeing cities and the country. Numbers reported by the government can not be trusted. Steel production collapse is a good example of the huge decline in the economy. The property developers collapse is starting to ripple thru all its suppliers. Steel is the most visible. More to come. The house of cards built on debt is not sustainable. The Ponzi scheme has been exposed.

  2. China has ignored the Climate Crisis and environmental protection for too long. Weather events are getting more extreme because of Climate Change. How hot does it have to get before governments and corporations wake up and stop adding more fossil fuels to the climate fire. There is a Climate Crisis. We need Climate Action NOW ! Floods, droughts and extreme temperatures caused by burning fossil fuels will get worse over time. Adding more coal power plants will make the Climate Crisis even worse. Adding new wind and solar energy production is where new infrastructure spending should be done.

  3. China's economy is in slow decline. The virus lock downs will speed it up. Lower GDP, higher unemployment, property developer bankruptcies, small and medium businesses going broke, local governments running out of cash, local banks running out of cash and individual personal despair of the population will lead to lower consumer spending. This will end up impacting the world economy and the US. China will try to spend its way out of its decline with government stimulus and that will reduce prices of goods produced in China and shipped around the world. Inflation will decline. China is the worlds second largest economy. A slow down in China will slow demand for energy. Steel production has declined and companies are going bankrupt because of the property developers stopped projects all over the country. The property developers collapse will ripple thru out the economy. Lock downs will make it worse. Individuals, corporations, bond holders and investors are leaving China. The ruffled feathers about Taiwan are meant to stir up people and have them rally around the CPP and China. They need to distract people from all the economic problems in China.
