Today, we’re launching into the next phase of our “Fire Hose of Chaos” series, shifting our focus from the US and onto China. Trust me, there will be no shortage of chaos in this series either.

The Chinese have built themselves up to be one of the most powerful countries in the world, but there are cracks in the foundation. The demographic issue is the largest crack, thanks to rapid industrialization, urbanization, and the one-child policy. And then the other issues start to pile on.

An aging and shrinking workforce has left Chinese manufacturing uncompetitive. Decades of financial mismanagement has created a fragile and unsustainable economy. Chinese agriculture is massively inefficient. And don’t get me started on the Yuan and the capital situation.

Get ready for a whole lot of dysfunction and chaos, because China was heading towards this scary collapse long before Trump came into the picture.
