Just some food for thought about China and Investment... and a few things about what it means when pro-China Americans Criticize Capitalism.

China got real-estate investing all wrong, because they don't have a natural progression of experience in the process, and attempted to just jump into it by fiat command economy methods.
Yet another example of how Collectivism isn't the panacea that lefties claim it will be.
We had our own real-estate bubble, but at least the housing had electricity, water and sewer.
But then there is the American-Leftie push for all-electric cars... without a enough generating capacity to charge them... or enough power and fresh water to remediate the toxic battery packs that weigh 2000+ lbs, leak toxins unless reprocessed, last just 18 months, and cost $15K to replace!
Did you know that reprocessing a single battery pack takes 50K gallons of fresh water!? The process also takes five times more energy than the gasoline which would run the average gasoline car for 10 years.
If we don't reprocess the dead batteries, they will pile up, leak, contaminate the ground water, and cause cancer, birth defects, and kill wildelife.
So, we seem to be having a bit of problems with realistic science evaluation instead of power and profit politics masquerading as science... just like the covid19 vaccine side effects...
Maybe, just maybe, a command economy is a bad idea!
The Lefties, worldwide, have much to answer for.
