“Wonder how long before food riots begin, in China...The shape of things to come.”

Surprised they’ve made it this far without riots, considering that Asians do not generally have the amount of ‘reserve capacity’ that us Westerners have.

As to the US, we’re still waiting to find out if we’re (somehow) less effected.

I don’t know how they can riot, they are chained, welded, barred and boarded in their homes and apartments. Those who venture out are arrested and put in “quarantine” I have seen videos of people trying to escape climbing down balconies. The British guy there who has been doing periscope video is revealing a lot of how things are there and he’s on the outskirts of town.
