As narrated by the article and not going into theoretical deepnesses in either field, events are in accord with the characterizations in the previous thread (Cretinisms...). Chinese did not incorporate money in their genetic makeup and it is a biological characteristic that distinguishes them from Occident. Their coin is traditionally empty in the middle (void), while we remember great men in thousands of years old coins. A real difference... So, **...amazing numbers providing stunning growth...** is no surprise: Chinese remained stale and stagnant for well over millenia, but only after Occident develops technologically they pick up and trail. Like a maid keeping a dirty home boasting of how clean that window is now compared to the ones she did not rush to clean up... **...50 per cent of the todal sales of Audi, BMW and Mercedez... Given that there were practically NO CARS on the road in China 30 years ago...**. This actually sounds like a lot of waste, or overstressed demand (Say s law). We already have samples of silly car destruction in China. Author says: **China has long been printing money to buy dollars...**. Bartering was widespread, right? So printing money does not translate really into inflation, particularly if you can export inflation by **...keep its exchange rate pegged**. So indeed in a **normal environment** ( author s concession to... real facts :), inflation follows, but in this case the result is (not surprisingly but accordingly...) REAL INTEREST RATES NEGATIVE. Or in other words: MONEY IS WORTH NOTHING, WE DO NOT WANT IT. Very big and simple message for the sum total of people involved. And of course it translates, again as per the article author, into PROPERTY SPECULATION! If no money, land and soil. If no money, TERRITORIAL ANIMAL. Also, following the Occidental model, an increase in credit to speculate with land, which again is an indication of the value of money ( I do not care... I ll owe...) or interest rate, in this case in real terms negative (-give me the money, it does not matter. -OK, whatever you want). ... Danilo J Bonsignore
