Those silly commies don’t understand that you have to bail out capitalists when they fail.
China need to up their can-kicking game
But what about the poor billionaires 😢
So are they poor or rich? Make up your mind!
See definition 6
I am aware, yes. I should add an /s at the end next time.
No, people need to learn how to recognize sarcasm again.
I disagree. Especially on the internet, it can often be very difficult to say what is sarcasm and what is not. This is mostly because of the wildly diverse opinions that people have.

Based China
It’s actually quite funny how people foresaw the downfall of the Chinese economy following Evergrande, and it just kinda carried on as normal because the Chinese govt refused to bail them out.
No doubt some people are gonna get burned by that policy too, but they made the right choice by not rewarding a company that clearly had significant financial management issues.
Meanwhile here in italy when a major company fails and goes bankrupt because of shitty management, corruption and greed, we first “save” it with public funds, then sell it to someone else to profit off of it

Not only that company but any other one is going to be incentivized to be irresponsible with their accounting and financial practices. What’s going to happen if Google or Microsoft broke? Are they going to be rescued too?
Property developers in China, unlike banks in the US, are not the backstop of the economy. They are not too big to fall: it’s just that their distressed assets need to be managed to minimize losses to their customers.
General Motors isn’t the backstop of the economy and they were rescued too.
Normalize not bailing out failing big businesses, hope we can bring that custom over here.

God I wish that were us
The commies can’t keep getting away with … checks notes … running a free market!
watch market socialism with a government aggressively enforcing a strict bounded free market actually do capitalism better then capitalism
Common China W
“We will scale up the building and supply of government-subsidized housing and improve the basic systems for commodity housing to meet people’s essential need for a home to live in and their different demands for better housing,” - but what about the profit motive?
If you want privatized gains, you must accept privatized losses. No risk, no reward.
Unlike U.S. bailing out “too big to fail”, China says “fuck you - we keep the tax dollars for us.”.
Near perfect capitalistic communism as is possible.
Wow, actual Moral Hazard?!
