China's fine. This is a predictable part of China's adjustment to a consumption driven economy. They could be in in for a few rough years but probably nothing compared to what the US went through after 2008 and if I remember correctly the US even though it hasn't really addressed the root of those problems is "gasp" still here. It's also important to remember current global economic conditions were not created by China but they are relatively well placed to muddle through the chaos. The US, however, who is really responsible for where we are has already used up it's spare tires. China's has US$ 3.5 trillion in the bank, a huge investment in infrastructure (which includes some excess investments but I'll take that over banker bailouts any day). Most importantly as regards the shift to domestic consumption driving GDP China as of an October 2015 Credit Suisse report for the first time has the largest population of middle class defined as holding net assets of US$50K to 500K in the world. China has 109 million the US 92 million and China not surprisingly added twice as many middle class than the US since 2000 and China's rate of middle class creation continues to far outstrip the US. So yes. The oppressed "slave labourers" are doing okay. They are also making massive investments in green technology to address growth related pollution problems. China's going in the right direction and they have the patience to think long term not the next news cycle.

North Korea is its own sovereign nation. China has significant leverage over them, but it's still not absolute control. The Chinese can help broker peace and reunification, but it would likely involve the U.S. leaving South Korea first. The American presence might stabilize the peninsula, but it also escalates the conflict too. Experts have proposed the solution that North Korea become a province of China. This would automatically end the Korean War, rein in North Korea's nuclear arsenal, and lift the people out of poverty. The region would become a special territory, and Kim would join the ranks of China's leadership.

I was thinking about this, why not just import a bunch of young chinese women, give them some oxytocin or what ever the hormone to cause lactation is, then have a bunch of wet nurses and natural milk for the local babies. Or maybe that idea is too japanese.

Weed was a huge part of Korean culture until Park Chung-hee made it illegal in the 1960s out of fear of hippies undermining his dictatorship. North Korea didn't have that obviously, so it's still everywhere. In ancient Japanese art they indicate a ship is from Korea by putting a giant High Times pot leaf on it. Korean kings were buried with supplies for the afterlife, which include huge bales of weed. E: Korean ship. Grand Fromage fucked around with this message at 04:47 on Jan 9, 2016 |
