an excellent article.. I live in China. Got the covid kick in 2020. I did not see my wife for over
3yrs until my return 2024.
XiJinping so fucked up 'all things China' that I can say the new 'iron rice bowl' is capitalism.

There were a lot of raised eyebrows and quiet chuckles this month when President-elect Donald Trump invited President Xi Jinping to Washington for his inauguration. Foreign leaders don’t attend our inaugurations, of course, but I think Trump’s idea was actually a good one. Having just returned from a trip to China, I can tell you that if I were drawing a picture of relations between our two countries today, it would be two elephants looking at each other through a straw.
