China has serious/unavoidable problems coming their way b/c of population collapse.

This underscores why Xi would be motivated to work with Trump behind the scenes. They're cooked without a massive pivot that no one sees coming... and even then it's probably bad for them. Not to mention the rest of the world were the country to descend into chaos.

Make sure the IRS stays in touch with those who were born in America but live in China.

Yep.

If they are ever going to go after Taiwan, it's going to be between now and the year 2040. After that they are cooked.

This sounds like gaslighting about one of the few countries that gets infrastructure done, isn't woke and doesn't take hordes of unvetted immigrants.

If it collapses millions will probably show up here with citizenship.

China needs to create a virus that disproportionately kills old people but doesn't kill any healthy young people.

I know the data is alarming.

But I just don’t think these places are going to collapse.

How can anybody care about fixing manmade global warming when top counties around the world are on a path to extinction?

I believe the big green EV push was a clandestine way to increase the GDP of China, with a declining workforce, for a kickback. ie: The value of a manhour pressing out a yard inflatable vs a manhour assembling EV batteries.

That is not how i took his comments. I take them as China will no longer be considered a world leader of any kind. Not that the entire country will fold.

It sounds like one doesn’t simply dip their toe into this crisis.

If the birth rate dictates you lose your world leader status, it’s not just going to ease up. You’re done is what the numbers would say, no?

Does anyone have any historical examples of population collapse?

One child policy was removed in 2016.

How bad will it get?

They've sent hundreds of thousands of their citizens here to start a even more pro-chinese movement, which will help (especially with anti-American democrats helping). hundreds of thousands more to invade. They won't be hurting at home, thats been predicted for 30 years and hasn't came true.

That wouldn't do China any favors. The problem is that the previous one child policies left many couples with few if any children.

Because of the lack of children, there are fewer future Chinese residents. Something similar is happening in the US in certain population groups.

They need to bring in as many black Americans as possible since they built the US, it’s the only solution.

The world will be in trouble if China were to no longer be regarded as “a world leader?”

Im probably not alone in a request for further explanation on that one, as it seems exceptionally nonsensical on its face.
