What's the point of being a socialist if you don't get a guaranteed paycheck?

I wouldn't put much faith in that prediction considering Citi did such a bang up job with their own business, but (the link) is worth reading.

Doubt riots in China have anything to do with Muslims.  The Chinese are not known for their sympathy for religious groups.  If a handful of Muslims started some shit there it is a real possibility thousands would be disappeared in a hurry.

At least one (maybe more) of China's western provinces is majority muslim. There is a seperatist movement from that region which occasionally makes the news.

By the way, China is still buying (last I checked) a lot of US government debt.

If they stop... wheeeeeeeee.

Swoop in and start sucking up all their profits. That way if they stop the downward spiral, they still can't get back to where they were.

Trust me, there are enough sexually-frustrated, oppressed, young men in China that when you drop that last straw onto the camel's back, you're going to see a shitload of violence go down. The PLA is going to slaughter thousands, but I'm betting quite a few of them are going to be right alongside the revolters. There's going to be a significant population decline as a result of starvation and civil war, but either the ChiComs will come out on top and be as brutal as ever but an economic failure, or the Chinese will finally gain their freedom.

Up next: Russia.

So are we.  I've got 60K$ of T-bills with almost no return just to keep them out of the banks. Think about it, I'm just a peon.
