    I was born in the West and have been living in Hong Kong for 40 years. The first time I visited Mainland China was in 1988 and have done so every year since, except for during the pandemic. I have seen the miracle and it never ceases to amaze me. It amuses me to read the things prople say about China who have never been there. Professor Wolf’s analysis is spot on and one of the best I have ever heard.

That’s really the only “true” war fought on American soil. The Civil War needed to be fought. Slavery is wrong. The Mexican-American War was a land grab to steal territory that belonged to Mexico before the arrival of Europeans. The all out war on Native Americans to steal their land should also be included in this conversation. Now, look at the countries worldwide that America has invaded.

Oil stamped on (a) Thorium molten salt fuel cycles : Nixon ordered all his team to come down hard on all nuclear research outside his base of support, California (YT video Thorium Debunked). He mentions people in back rooms : Oil had the most to gain.
      After the shooting down in the street of JFK, and his brother in a back room, both of who wanted an end to Vietnam, no President has dared to cross the MIC.
      From Reagan onwards, the will of the people on every front has simply been ignored. On competence alone, Reagan's 2nd term, Trump and Biden should all have been retired before they were allowed to be President.

    My husband came to us in 1996. When we found there was hot water coming out of the tap, we were thrilled. We made about $60 per month in China. 11years later, my hometown was completely upgraded that I didn’t even know where I was. We decided to return to China since then. I visited US once in a while, but never wanted to live in us. It is much more convenient, cheaper, and fun to live in China today. We don’t agree with everything the government does, but we never want a war. Both US and China are great countries with great people. As just an ordinary person, I will not allow myself and my family be used and sacrificed for those elites and capitalists of either side.

    Regrettably, the United States might be the first to face collapse. As an immigrant nation, it deals with social, racial, and religious challenges akin to those in Europe. The country also struggles with homelessness, drug abuse, and overwhelming national debt. Once vital, the manufacturing sector has diminished, resulting in lost competitiveness and declining sales. Successive governments have failed to address these issues, exacerbating the decline with nonsensical isolationist policies.

    We cannot have the 'us vs them' mindset. China is not the enemy. It has repeatedly said that it wants to a friend and collaborate with any country (including the US) to grow together, to deal with poverty and other existential threats like climate change, AI and nuclear weapons.
    No nation, including the US, would like to be encircled by 200 or more hostile military bases, have its coastlines patroled regularly, threatened with sea blockade of its trade routes in the seas off its coastlines by regular hostile navy exercises. Even more critical is seeing a part of its country being armed and encouraged to go independent. And then branded as aggressive, expansionist, and a threat to the world.
    The US, and the world, is stronger with China as a friend rather than treating it as the enemy.

      Because the “Democratic” system elects “politicians” which very term describes people whose profession is to get into power and to stay in power. They are generally not trained in anything else, be it economics or administration or education or healthcare, but they suddenly are running departments that deal with economics and health and education and governance, and more amazingly, they move from department to department without ANY knowledge or expertise in ANY of those departments.
      In China, the people in government are not “politicians” but are experts in their field who have been promoted over several decades from townships to cities to provinces and finally to the central government based on their consistent success in achieving goals set by the government, be it economic growth, or poverty alleviation, or technological development : the very definition of a meritocracy. So it is NOT POSSIBLE in China to come up with a total idiot (an arrogant idiot) such as Liz Truss or a charlatan, business failure, and demagogue such as Donald Trump.

    China in the early to mid 1800s was a large populated empire with around 400 million people and an economy around 25% of global gdp. Chinese silk, tea and porcelain were luxury goods that Europeans all wanted. European trade with China was pretty much a one way street, until the British managed to smuggle opium into China. If not for the devastating Taiping rebellion China would have been strong enough to resist Western invasions.

Marx dialectical analysis of Capitalism plus what Lenin and Mao brought to the theory with practice is fundamental for all socialists. But for development, Deng economic decisions plus Xi vision for the future of China, should be studied as a qualitative jump to the soviet socialist experiment. China is the most advanced form of socialism humans were able to materially achieve. Its an update on Socialist theory and its just the beginning. The world need be taking notes.

This main video should be focused on talking about why should US led West still being an imperialist empire and why it is constantly forcing every country to be subservient to it instead of being a responsible country and contribute to peace and human prosperity for all (and not the usual benevolence doublespeak bs).

    In a nutshell, China is a socialist market economy, it's a mixed economy. The governmental structure facilitates centralized national planning and administration is decentralized at lower levels. Policy consultation comes through democratic processes at grass-roots level, bottom-up. China isn't anti-capitalists but capitalism is on a leash as the state doesn't allow capitalism to dictate the direction of the country. What you might find interesting the west learned a lot from the Chinese for centuries until the industrial revolution that spurred the west ahead, today the western companies that go to China are finding it difficult to compete with local companies, China has developed in many areas beyond what western companies can offer.

    Whenever Richard is having these wonderful, insightful interviews, I just wonder how many people INSIDE the US (or Canada) are following his discussions. Here in the South and East (and probably in certain parts of Europe), people are listening and appreciating his comments and views. Bottomline is the fact that the Western 'leadership' has become violently pathetic for that matter. What should have been a high level US national debate, has become a giant comedy show for the rest of the planet, with an associated sense of fear and hopelessness for the future.

He leads you through the paths and twists of history and economics to a point where you lose completely any perception of the surrounding environment, as much as you do watching a compelling movie or reading an adventure book. Educational at the highest level, while being uncannily (given the subject matter) entertaining.

    I see China wasn't trying to compete but keep developing and manufacturing to strive better and better. The west esp. US see it as a competion because China's economies is getting stronger and stronger. Chinese government (Communist) is much more efficient than democratic system as they gets things done almost immediately than going on debating forever in the end things don't get done at all becos of too much opposition. The west is just tasting the grape sour and jealous over others success thats all. Prof. Wolf says it all. Any country will try its best way to produce the cheapest. Everyone see these but the west & US just could not accept it....a sorrow pill to swallow. Instead of working together to improve, trying to kill others (by sanctioning) is going for a sucidal feat. In the end the BRICS+ countries is going to be rich countries.

      Gold is often seen as a safe-haven asset that can protect against inflation and economic uncertainty. But like any investment, it carries risks. To determine if gold is the right investment option for you, an investment advisor can help you weigh the potential benefits and risks of investing in gold. They can also help you create a well-diversified portfolio that includes gold as part of a broader investment strategy. An investment advisor can help you decide how much of your portfolio should be allocated to gold and select other investments that can complement your gold holdings.

    When the PRC first decided to change its economic approach, it was poor and didn't know how the Western System worked. China opened Special Economic Zones to test its plans while China prepared. The US sent some of its best businessmen to acquire benefits. But the Chinese sent its best business minded people to negotiate, and the Americans left empty handed or with ( to the Chinese view) a fair deal. Then the Chinese studied the HK, Singapore, Korean, Japanese approach and adopted this. This policy got China to where it is now. Where from here? BRICS. The World is sick and tired of the US and Western Imperialism. China's approach is benefitting Africa and the rest of the World. Later, the US and Europe will be contained and isolated.

    As the two most powerful countries in the world, why can't they cooperate and develop together instead of competing for the first place in the world?

    I came across your channel through this video-
    case studies are incredibly valuable, and I'm eager
    to see more in the future! Building wealth involves
    establishing routines, like consistently setting aside
    funds at regular intervals for smart investments.

      You're correct. I think the smartest way to go is
      to spread out your investments. By putting
      your money into different asset classes like
      bonds, real estate, and stocks from other
      countries, you can lower the risk if one part of
      the market goes bad.

      That sounds like a good plan. In the past two
      years, working closely with a financial market
      specialist, I've builta six-figure diversified
      stock portfolio. Now, I aim to diversify even
      more this year.

      Talking about a financial market specialist, do
      you consider anyone worthy of

      the waters now that large cap stocks are at a

    The Chinese economy is much larger than the S. Korean economy. China has a larger poverty base to start with.
    Singapore has the same political and economic system as China. China actually copied the Singapore model of the early 1970's. China is just a giant Singapore. Both nations have one party rule.

    The model of successful development provided by the West is NO longer attractive, in fact deceitful itself, to the global south, so did the so claimed the western value such as ruled-based order, human right, democracy, freedom of speech, … etc for one reason and one reason only which is the West failed to dress themselves up as a role model to learn from. Beyond the West had already lost its status as shining light of the hill or paradigm, the sad part of the story is the West is still preaching others how to run their states that is something global south countries would NOT pay a serious look at all.

    Judging by this show.
    The people of United States are actually very observant and reflective people.
    From the perspective of a country, being good at observing and learning always has a better future than being fond of subjugating others by force.
    But the inertia of the United States bus is too great, and there is almost no force to pull it. It's already on the verge of spiraling out of control.
    The wars that are taking place and being going on in the world have always warned the Chinese: We must unite and struggle.
    It is foreseeable how much the world will change in the near future!

    America should try to profit from China’s strengths instead of trying to restrict or compete. Why not setup partnerships with China instead, like open dealerships all across USA to sell cheaper electric vehicles to the American people. Make it a win win situation for everybody.

    In the mid 90s I went to a seminar in San Diego got an invitation to listen to Arthur Laffer I got down there I dress pretty casual. Everybody in the audience was in a suit so I sat in the back so I wouldn’t get arrested everything he said about China and the Konomi actually happened and it’s happening right now it’s a China can destroy Ford motor company, GM Chrysler Honda Toyota and this is why I won’t go into what he said but everything he said that day has come true thanks, Rick
