When the USSR mired itself in economic malaise during the 1970s and 80s, the social response was a nation of vodka-swilling drunks, too demoralized to even attempt solutions. I don’t see the young people of China having a similar cultural response. Will they just pass their lives away playing video games, ‘lying flat’, and virtually hanging out with the 20%+ of their generation who are unemployed? Or will a significant percentage of them rise up, find ways to circumvent the CCP, and create a better future for themselves? I don’t know, but I’m counting on the inherent creativity and passion of human nature to at least try!
Their future could be filled with more ‘interesting times’ than we can now imagine.
