The crash in China has just begun.

Wait until unemployment and inflation hits. Food prices go up and real wages go down. Millions of hungry people.

Once again croneyism and corruption lead to misallocation of resources.

It would have been nice if we had learned that lesson a hundred or so years ago. Maybe we did know it at one time, but we seem to have forgotten it for quite a while.

And China is becoming evermore bellicose, and is now claiming the entire South China Sea as its own; it has even openly made comments that it will side with Iran in any conflict Iran has with the West.

China is gearing up to fight us, and we have an incompetent in the White House, a cowardly appeaser who daily trots out some new brainfart to weaken the United States.

China is in more desperate financial/civil trouble than the USA by a factor of at least 10. Their entire population, 4 times that of the USA is crammed into an area equivalent to ours east of the Mississippi.The rest of the country, also about the size of the USA is barren and unlivable. The male population is growing very restless because of the lack of females due to the one child policy. Border countries like Siberia,which the Russians would have a problem defending, Vietnam , Laos, all of SE Asia along with Taiwan are prime targets both for material gain and to relieve the pressure on the batchelors by putting them to work at conquest. The South China Sea may become the next hotbed of conflict. It is one of the most important sea lanes in the world. JMHO.

People still can’t afford them, I imagine.

The photos at link are stunning - 28 of them. Looks like a major zombie preparedness plan.

“Home prices have plunged by one third recently, down 60% from 2006, in Kangbashi . . . .”
Is the author saying that prices have recently plunged by 40% or is he saying that a recent plunge of an unspecified amount has taken prices down to 40% of their 2006 value?

The ghost cities have fascinated me for years. Giant cities, with sports arenas and concert halls and train stations and thousands of apartments and homes, police stations, museums, parks, luxury hotels, restaurants, warehouses, factories, swimming pools - and nobody has ever lived there or used them, and likely nobody ever will.

They build one empty city then go off and build another. That is Rod Serling weirdness.

Dateline segment on China's ghost cities:

China's Ghost Cities and Malls

Best line, when showing an empty mall that has was designed to handle 70,000 customers a day but five years later the only open store sees a single customer every few days - ""The mall was heralded by the New York Times as proof of China's astonishing new consumer culture."

And liberals never get it when I try to tell them that reading the New York Times only makes a person stupider.
