If a billionaire is in actual trouble, he's in China. US would have bailed out Evergrande.

I have pretty severe concerns about how the Chinese government operates, but this is one thing they do right.

We have traded the literal genocide and opression for corporations performing economic genocide and opression on us.

But hey, aren't billionaires cool?

Gee it sure sucks that Evergrande collapsed. What a horrible sign for the Chinese economy!

Man all these bad news about Chinese property market, hopefully there isn't a collapse there as predicted.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (8 children)

I hope that the property market collapses and property prices go way down. Surely there are large numbers of people who would like to buy property but cannot afford it at the moment. I hope that happens in many countries.
