bob dobbs is dead posted:you can ignore this sort of thing if the per-country index performance is like 25% but not if it's -15% one aspect of bubble Japan is that even before the asset price bubble actually popped in 1990, there was already widespread domestic commentariat anxiety about the 'creativity problem'; these largely stalled in white papers and negotiations and other domestic sticking points until the bubble burst, which then created a political opening for reform, even though the fundamental reasons behind the lost decade are macroeconomic rather than anything really related to the educational policy or such domestic reform agenda I have a feeling that the Chinese equivalent is the prickly rule by/of law topic: the neoliberal side of the neolib-neoauth compact have already been grumbling about it since the late 2010s and a growth slowdown will create an opening to argue for stricter proceduralism and predictability in law enforcement, and tackling this will be politically easier than tackling macroeconomic problems

China executes them when they're inconvenient to someone powerful. Like say if they owned compromising recordings taken on a party island...
