Of course the CCP will collapse. They can't compete. Their people lack basic freedoms. They are communists.

And Jim Rickards is always a good read.

Thanks, and I agree in general with this take on the huge Paper Tiger.

The Collapse of Communist China happened with the death of Mao Tse Tung and the biter end happened with the overthrow of the Gang of Four.

Since then, China has transitioned into a pure form of a fascist state, where the government no longer owns, but controls the means of production.

Not to mention that the Three Gorges Dam forever makes China vulnerable if it keeps acting belligerent.

At least from observation, they waver between fascism and communism, depending what the agenda at the time is. They allow fascism to generate private wealth, but when the people start to become independent, the CCP nationalizes everything again.

If Xi loses the Mandate of Heaven, China will descend into chaos, unrest and political decentralization as has happened repeatedly over 3,000 years of Chinese civilization.

There's your bottom line. Somehow, the Chinese have a knack for periodic convulsions, of which the Cultural Revolution was emblematic.

This same disease also infects parts of Western Europe and here in the USA under democrat rule as was Biden.

That is the reason they need censorship. You can not talk about their failures least you be prosecuted.

There’s only one legitimate China and its capital is Taipei. If the CCP regime collapses, the Republic of China can return to the mainland and we won’t have to worry about WWIII breaking out between Taiwan and Red China.

It all depends on what the ChiCom generals (and colonels) will do. The Soviet generals were too incompetent and too drunk to stop the USSR and its satellite states from spinning apart.

Would things have been different had Marshal Zhukov been in charge in those days?

Seeing is believing.

If all that is said is full proof true, now is not the time to lower tariffs with the CCP. Now is the time to help ruin the CCP.
