You know it's jover when the NYTimez and WSJ start putting out articles about the US failing hard behind China.

Waiting for all the "the US is going to collapse any day now" articles like they did all the time for China

Yeah but what is their "answer" gonna be?

Yeah im going to need my Western comrades to fucking stop talking about China’s objective victory because I really need another 10-20 years to dump all my money into the Chinese stock market while it’s still hilariously undervalued in USD

I happen to live somewhere with a currency that has about a 1:1 exchange rate with the RMB. All those videos where Chinese people talk about how ridiculously little they pay for food and rent and transportation and cars and everything else are really relatable in a "why do I have to pay four times as much for things that are much shittier?" kind of way.

The free market ensures that consumers will have to pay the lowest price the market can sustain: a 30% profit markup at every level of exchange.
