I don't trust any of the statistics.

What I do trust is that the ccp wouldn't nuke its economy - and risk a revolution or outside intervention - for nothing.

All governments want their slaves outside the house and generating taxable revenue like good little citizens.

They would if the new pool of tax slaves is the entire world. Global economic reset, cashless digital currency......an armed populace who stands in the way of that plan. Unleash the chaos As the engineered collapse of the dollar hits home, and allow national guard/UN to “stabilize” the situation....oh wait, in order to do so, disarming people will be a necessity

I'm talking about the PRC.

It is dependent on IP theft and trade to flourish and placate its citizens.

Doing this risks trade embargoes with the whole of the world. That is going to really, really hurt. Full surveillance and a capable navy, army, and airforce, are all very expensive.

A lot of imponderables here, it's gambling

There's zero certitude this scenario would in the end turn in favor of the ccp, or any body else for that matter
