Asia is the Future!!!!
People like Ray Dalio and numerous others keep saying asia is the future, these asian countries are facing an untold demographic crisis in the near future. They have a fertility rate of less than 1 child per woman in some of the asian countries. China is a sausage fest off the Richter scale due to the one child policy. They tied down female babies to a potty in these dilapidated orphanages where they were abandonded and they let them die, there are documentaries about it with real footage because these euro people snuck cameras in at great personal risk back in the 80's-90's.

They continually turned down food aid from the west to save face. Look at how they treat this guy in the video as well. Foreign investment is cautious and limited in scope due to abnormal and corrupt government practices and no protection or respect for intellectual property. These countries have severe internal problems and what is more likely in many of these countries is a populist uprising due to a growing middle class, and then a severe economic downturn due to a lack of children. These countries governments have no respect for human rights. The future does not lie in Asia, there is a coming demographic winter, and asia is going to be hit hard by it. China is banning men from playing video games. They are defacto banning vasectomies. They are trying to implement a mandatory 3 child policy. So if you think these ideas presented are far fetched, then why is the CCP doing these things? They know too.
It is simple:
No children = no future.
a shrinking population leads to less economic output and less demand and this issue is compounded by the complication that elderly people are actually a net drain on the productivity of a society. Imagine you have countries that are shrinking by a rate more rapid then the casualties of wars past, and whats worse is the elderly people are there and have to be cared for. Watch what will happen, china and russia essentially have actually more serious problems they are facing than the US does. It was called a baby boom in the us because thats what it was, a boom in the population which subsequently led to a boom in the economy, particularly in the 90s when the baby boomers were in there late thirties or 40s where it is proven to be the point in life where men are most productive and spend the most money and capital. look into the works of harry dent jr.
Imagine if the Ukraine conflict was intentional to get all the females and children to become refugees in Europe and let the men get killed in the crossfire to improve the failing demographics of the european countries. Sounds crazy but its possible that was the plan cause it appears that is what happened. Russia, Ukraine, and all the eastern european countries have terrible demographics as well. Governments don't care about individuals per se, they care about keeping tax money coming in and keeping control of the currency because thats what keeps them in power. they can't accomplish this without new subjects to control.

The Philippines just elected Bong Bong Marcos (son of the 1980s dictator) as president, and some say he's pro CCP. Scary times we're living in.
What. The. Actual. Fuck?!
What is interesting is this book was written in the 1930's and some of the observations still hold true today. The book is viewed as somewhat derogatory of Chinese people and perhaps it is a bit. Its a long read but an interesting perspective on the history of china for anyone interested: https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/i....mages/original/002/1
