>>the Chinese managed to poison their domestic milk supply

What fascinates me is they are trying to prevent lawsuits from those poisoned. I wonder how TJ feels about this aspect of Chinese justice.

The people bankers hire to make deals are people like myself.

As a consequence, bankers don't make deals until prices stop falling - when real estate prices have returned to, or are below, their long-term GDP trend.

If bankers hired such specialists in the first place they would not made the loans in the first place - but banks don't like to pay that much on an ongoing basis. They only authorize the decent pay when they're in trouble.

I brought milk powder with me to China for making coffee.... but was told not to worry and am eating the yogurt :)

I think a lot of people have very distorted ideas of what China is like.
