i like it a lot because I have no understanding of what a good film is

And I do but I'm always interested in editing and shot composition. Scene/character design and costuming I've already got a good handle on, but the communicating ideas through motion or how people stand in the frame or whatever, that I'm a bit sketchier on

lo, and the roosevelt said "I will electrify your hollers and protect your coal miners' right to unionize, and in return you must grant me only two things: your votes, and the blood of your sons to spend in the wars of my nation". In this way, the roosevelt became honored as King of Mountain and Dale

I am fairly pleased to say my family didn't make any money off coal mining at any point.

We created all of our wealth from construction in the 50's, 60's and 70's building houses, gas stations, banks, and lots of government contracting. Then dad went into the grocery business and created a fiefdom.

Before that, my great-grand father was a carpenter and coffin builder.

The area I am from was never a big coal area. More timber .

I just remember hearing Australia's was particularly bad, is all. But it's probably confined to non-boring places like Sydney and Melbourne, as ExMarx pointed out, so I probably shouldn't worry.

Nothing in places as big as Sydney and Melbourne in a country as small as Australia is "confined." When the US stock market crashed, it hosed Singapore up. What hope would Perth have?

I just meant the potential immediate effects from a sudden housing crash, since she just bought a house. I don't imagine the effects of such an event would be as bad in Canberra as they would be in Sydney, just as the price decreases of our own housing crash weren't as bad in Milwaukee as they were in, say, Phoenix.

this rumor has been going on for ages so im not sure, china currently has vast tracts of unoccupied housing despite the billion people and yet real estate prices in the major urban areas hold steady. it will happen but i think a general slowdown in the chinese economy, larger than the current one, will predate it first

They have vast tracts of unoccupied cities. You see things like that and the natural response is "oh gently caress, that's so bad," but then you have an official pointing out that China has somewhere around the fastest growing population in the world, and if they waited until the population was bulging at the seams to address it and start building the infrastructure to support it, it'll be too late, and there'd be a massive epidemic of homelessness. What looks like an empty city now could very well be a dense metropolis in 20 years. So I can see the logic in that but at the same time, building and building and building and building and not selling is such a huge red flag. Who knows what the gently caress is going on with China.

yeah the chinese economy is pretty much impenetrable. when real estate inevitably tanks, who knows what effect that will have on the rest of the of economy because the extent of the interconnectedness in their weird shadow finance system is utterly unclear
