Remember, the CCP's grand plan is really just a major Ponzi scheme in which they keep labor costs low by continuously importing slave labor from the countryside. In order to make this happen, they have been running the mother of all inflation policies, which is set to come crashing down really fucking soon. Official figures put their internal debt at 330 percent of GDP, so it's likely close to 500. All of this is aside from the fact that they are naturally running out of labor as their population keeps getting older. A growth in GDP under ten percent, which has been going on for a couple of years now, has them walking backwards, and now this thing? I am anxious to see the tar and feather thing hit Shanghai within the next decade.
I understand why the comrades in the European Soviet Union are eager to copy them, those bastards have simply never gotten over their nostalgia for concentration camps.
But the real ticker is this New Zealand thing. What in the holy fuck has been going on there? This is full on morose dystopia, they have twice now elected a demon bitch from hell to enforce juche on a scale that the original authors have never considered possible, and it just keeps getting crazier by the day. Why? What is the rationale behind this? Is everybody drunk all the time?
