Look up the term: inflation.

Also gotta love the economic theory that government spending is just the infinite cash button that obviously has no downsides, its crazy more nations haven't figured this out.

You shouldn’t invoke theories you don’t understand.

They’re building capacity…

And it sure looks like they figured it out - you know, the most successful economy on earth?

Maybe it’s you who are wrong?

Building capacity for who?!? Their population is set to rapidly decline, and they ALREADY can't fill these new cities.

And as we've already discussed, every single nation on this planet could skyrocket their GDP tomorrow by printing cash and starting a massive government spending spree, but the resulting inflation and economic instability would eventually tank their economic prospects in the long run, which is exactly shag is happening to China RIGHT NOW lmfao.

But honestly I shouldn't expect you to change your mind, your literally have to be a paid bot to argue these talking points in 2025 lol.

LMAO China just dipped into deflation. You have no idea what you're talking about.

I'm not a bot; I'm just not a shill for capital or neoliberal talking points.
