updates: China's economy is in a dead-end with weak domestic consumer demand and slowing growth due to years of erratic and irresponsible policies, excessive Communist Party control, and undelivered promises of reform [567fa130]. The only solution China's leaders see is to rely on pumping out exports, which will lead to more tension with trade partners and a gloomier outlook for the Chinese people [567fa130]. The decline in China's economy has led to a decrease in consumer spending, a decline in exports, and a slowing economy [77bf318c]. The authoritarian control of the Communist Party and the forced submission of entrepreneurs have also contributed to the decline [77bf318c]. Additionally, China's economic problems have resulted in a decline in real estate values, a decrease in industrial expansion, and a lack of modernization [77bf318c]. The country's heavy-handed approach to trade relations and encroachment on Hong Kong's liberties have damaged economic links with the West and Japan [77bf318c]. China is losing foreign investments, technological expertise, and access to financial flows [77bf318c].

updates: China expert Anne Stevenson-Yang argues in her book "Wild Ride" that China's experiment with capitalism has failed. She explains that China's rise to global economic power was not indicative of a successful market economy system, but rather a strategic effort to harness capital. The turning points in China's economic trajectory were the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre, which led to a shift towards a more authoritarian approach, and the Olympics followed by the global financial crisis, which resulted in a collapse of the real estate market and an economic downturn. China's future is predicted to be more isolationist, with the government facing the choice of either printing money and causing inflation or allowing the country to go into a long recession. The consequences of the economic crisis are visible in the real estate market, where empty towers and a collapsed bubble indicate a bleak situation. China's financial markets are on edge, with tensions growing between China and the West, particularly in the tech sector. The Chinese government's regulatory interventions against domestic tech companies are part of a broader trend of closing up and becoming more repressive. The stock market has been affected by structural money flows, with a significant outflow of capital from China back to the US and Europe. Overall, China's economic situation is dire, and the government will likely resort to more repressive measures to maintain its grip on power.
