Chinese citizens have very few options to "store" fruits of current production for the future. One of the few things allowed is to own more than one property. As anyone who understands incentives and economy will tell you, this will result in a lot of surplus housing that is going to be substandard. Demand for housing is increased strongly, but not for actually living in, it is just an object that increases in value.
Obviously, sooner rather than later, the value for housing is going to crash. A typical building needs to be of good quality and will still require maintenance and heating to keep its value. The Chinese housing is basically crumbling away unused. A lot of housing projects are not even truly finished.
So, yeah the comparison to NFTs is valid.
Generally, as soon as you decouple supply and demand through price fixing or price controls, you will end up with ridiculous amounts of waste.
The amount of waste that a centrally "planned" country produces is staggering. It is not new. It was like that in the Soviet Union too. There are many famous examples of it. A famous one being a pants factory not getting enough buttons for the pants, so they just kept producing and storing pants, waiting for buttons to arrive. They never did.
If you had several button factories, the prices would simply go up. The increased income could be spent on investing in increasing the production, bringing the button prices down again while at the same time producing one or two buttons per pair of pants.
These things are so simple to see, but it seems to 90% of people it is a mystery how and why the free market works.
Okay, so just because we do not know what the first cause is, it must be something that "cares" about us and something you can "pray" to?
Come on dude. A first cause could be entirely physical and material in nature. No need for a bearded man in the clouds.
But... do you have a clue then? No you don't. You know far less about anything than the average scientist.
You just say: "It is god" and stop thinking. If I were god, I would be very angry at people like you. Why did he give you a brain if you are not going to use it?
Why didn't god just create robots? He could have modeled free will with a random number generator easily.
What do you actually mean with "god"? There have been thousands in the past. Which one is the "real" one that exists?
You are an atheist for all these gods... except for one. I am just more consistent and say even that one is probably BS.
Hey hey, I'm an atheist! Those are strawman arguments. No atheists thinks what you described here.
Also, I could easily say you are dumb because you believe a man with a beard lives in the sky or you believe a prophet went to heaven on a flying horse.
There are multiple levels of stupid and I think atheism is less stupid of a world view than religion.
These people are mentally ill. I can not see how else they could believe contradictory things like this.
Every morning at exactly 7:07 am, I go into my garden, naked. I face due south and while holding in a fart, I yell : "Stay awaaaay!"
No elephants so far. Can not imagine how many would have stomped through my garden, had I not been doing this for the last 41 years.
This is the level of logic they are using. And yet, we are the "anti-science" people. They have blind faith in sciency things. A vaccine is made to protect me, so it will!
It is 100% like a religion, but these people do not see it.
Hm, I think it is not him. His stature is much different.
My concrete basement. It has all the food and water in it and 90% of my tools
Notice the symbolism of the kid behind the netting?
My coworker does this too. He is blinded by his education. His judgement can never be wrong. He is "smart"! He must be right.
It could be a solar storm
I would not call TGCOM24 "mainstream" tbh, but yeah
This is epic and very true!
Lol dumb bitches
Oh so you want civil war? lol
I want an abortion mandate for Democrats! No more leftist babies!
No, these people should be arrested. All of their dealings should be looked at in worldwide, transparent, public trials. I want the complete WEF-cult looked at.
Yeah nah mate. Fascism by definition is big government and big corporations.
I am not sure if she is, however, what I do know is that she has a hairy ass. They all do from that part of the world.
Soros, Schwab... Uschi van der Leyen
Antonov always has been a Ukrainian company. They have been producing airplanes for a long time. Besides that the company operates a cargo business.
Shortly before the start of the conflict at least some of their planes were transferred out to Germany. The An-225 did not make it, because management did not deem it that urgent.
I am no expert on these planes, but I think this is an An-124. Obviously in Ukrainian livery.
I would fire anyone who has colored their hair in an unnatural color... Facial tattoo -> Away you go.
... ? Sure I can do that! It's a private company!
So much cisphobia wowww :-D
How do they know it is "women's clothing" if they can not define what a woman is?
My joints hurt just looking at this photo.
It appears this woman never really grew up mentally.
