Living in China is getting cheaper. Because rents in my neighborhood in central Beijing are dropping, my wife and I pressed our landlord to reduce ours by $140 a month in a new lease that we signed last month. He wasn’t too happy about it, but he’s lucky that we didn’t move out. Given the desperation of local landlords, we probably could’ve saved another $500 a month had we switched to a comparable apartment nearby.
BUT AT WHAT COST?
i don’t even buy that china “has too much supply/not enough demand” tbh. there are over a billion people there. you could find demand for anything you can supply
they’re conflating lack of overconsumption with lack of demand. they also export shit loads to the entire world so i dont see how they would possibly have that problem
just sounds like capitalist pig cope. i hate these people
