best China / Japan / deflation / demographics article ever (?) .............................

Shortly, I am going to post a Bloomberg piece that compares :

A lot of what is going on NOW in China

to

a lot of what WAS going on in Japan over the past few decades.

And ... the Bloomberg piece also mentions this "zinger" :

<<<<< China and Japan also share one long-term trend that hampers their economies -- aging. Japan's working-age population decreased 0.4 percent per year from 1990 to 2015. That hurts growth because fewer productive, income-earning workers are supporting a larger army of retirees. As a result of China's decades-long policy of limiting many couples to only one child -- a restriction Beijing eased only over the past three years -- the Chinese population is set to age even more quickly, with the workforce expected to shrink nearly 0.5 percent annually over the next 25 years, according to Goldman Sachs. >>>>>

Jon.
