They can have multiple children legally now. We had an Au Pair from China, and she was one of 3. Her parents were probably upper class, but they had to pay higher taxes because of the multiples, at that time.
I know this is now the case, but I only met two people my age in China with siblings. One was the daughter of a famous general and had lived all over the globe, so that made sense why she had siblings.
The other was an extremely dark story where her parents were not wealthy. She had an older brother which I found to be odd from someone born in the late 80s/early 90s and it took me months to gain her trust on why she had a brother. Turns out her parents went on the run from the CCP for 6 months in order to have her and she was born in a shack in the middle of the woods where her father personally delivered her. Shortly after she was born, the CCP caught up with them. The family’s punishment: all 4 were sterilized. Do not underestimate the level of evil that government is capable of even if most of the Chinese are good people.

Run the numbers for social security disbursement + Medicare liability per month per year for 30,000,000 people over the age of 64 and see how many trillions that is over say 15 years.
It’s an eye opener.

Hi, its me, the sole member of this board that has and does business with China on a daily basis since 1997. I've also been over 40 times. In China because of the 1 child policy. People on the street do not look at or show any kindness of friendliness towards the elderly. As the stereotype is they're like stray dogs. If you're nice to them, they'll leach on to you. And they'll expect you to care for them.
There is also another massive economic reason that I'm pretty sure some of you may but most do not know all about. I'm happy to shed light on if its of interest.

Wuhan was nothing more than a simple village. The population zoomed up to 11 million when the textile industry took over.
Ending their dominance in textiles? Hardly an intent. Ending their primary customer in Italy? Thousands died as a result of the textile show ends and takes the virus home with them ....hardly.
Remember, Wuhan was closed ....they welded people inside their homes ....the furnaces were burning 24/7 to the point of shipping in Crematory experts from other Provinces to clear the bodies. Including the addition of portable cremation furnaces ....
When the Government decided to open Wuhan ...there was rush to escape ....The surrounding Provinces blocked bridges and roadways to stop the citizens from crossing the borders. One report spoke of an actual battle on a bridge to stop Wuhan Citizens from crossing over ....Chinese Government troops actually fighting alongside the neighboring Province Police Forces.
I still lean toward an accidental release ....simply because of the lack of experienced properly trained staff in the lab. The US Embassy in Wuhan had warned about this for years before the virus emerged.
The Chinese Government over reacted and destroyed all the evidence. No Horseshoe bats ever in that wet market. Horseshoe bats are not native to the area ...they exist in colonies over a thousand miles away. One count had over 500 live bats in the lab. The Bat Lady has records of over 15,000 separate viruses collected from those bats. All of that evidence has been destroyed. If this was intentional ....China has the recipe under lock and key hundreds of miles away.

She had a twin sister, and also had a brother, who worked for Ralph Lauren, very affluent in the business. He would complain about having to be away from China, living in NYC, Paris, and other parts of the fashion world. I just thought that was crazy.
She was 24 at the time, and was working on her masters while here. She was our first Au Pair, and we realized that she lied on just about everything on her resume, including driving. She was literally the worst driver I ever saw and rode with. I almost kissed the ground when I survived the ride with her, PJPII style. Needless to say, her culture was so different from ours that we never got another Chinese Au Pair.

There’s definitely some truth to this. Young Chinese people can be way more friendly towards white foreigners than their own elderly. Their elderly are still brainwashed by Maoism (Gen X and below isn’t) and hate Westerners in general and really I never had a friendly relationship with any Chinese person over 50 when I lived there.
And the Millennials and young Gen-Xers and below got really, really fricked by the One Child Policy. It used to be spread out among 20 people to take care of the grandparents, but now it’s down to 4. The Millennials may not be starving in the streets on mass like their parents did, but they got a fricked up hand in their own right, and I don’t blame them for having some resentment toward their parents and grandparents for not fleeing to Taiwan when they had the chance and watching their cousins over there grow up in freedom.

Hi it’s me. I can assure you that you are not the only person on this board who does business with China on a daily basis. I know of two people on this board who do enough business and travel to China to actually own homes there. And yes I said homes. Not apartments.

Peter Navarro has been basically laying this exact foundation for over a year now when he was still Trade Advisor. He was the 1st top guy I ever heard say on the major outlets to just use your common sense and figure out the country that benefited 10 fold from this. He said to take an occam's razor approach and there is your answer.

I wonder if the law of unintended consequences will take place with the vaccines. Not sure if the vaccines are an end all.

China has a population bubble of elderly.
Not that i buy any of thst motivation… I think if China were looking to thin their own herd they would want something thst skewed male. Most chinese families take care of their elders on their own.

That year of 2035 was also thrown around when little Bush was plugging his version of stock market investment backed SS 20 plus yrs ago. I find the 2035 year narrative to be a joke when we have trillions being artificially tossed around like it's monopoly money.
