Yes but thats what happens
They Build it
Markets Change
Greece pulls the World down



This is Normal.

Mothball is the new time
many Projects stay on hold
until Markets change.

how many Chinese people still live in Mud huts with no electricity and no indoor plumbing? THE VAST majority.

So why is it still empty? I thought they were sooo proud to be communist and socialist and providing for the people? so why would the economy matter? It's already been build, move them in.

This is interesting!

Just because it's typical doesn't make it not interesting..

Quite simply, what they're building isnt what the majority can afford, it's a giant property bubble waiting to burst, and when it does, it'll make Europe's problems seem like a blip, they Chinese government are actively feeding the bubble

Greece pulled the world down? Not the excesses of unregulated capitalism leading on to oligarchy?

No Greece was Corrupted into the Euro

or do not waste my time.

You don't really have a grasp on the world financial crash, do you?

How about regulated capitalism? That works much better, and remains a lot fairer. How about Companies making 10 billion a year, no longer feel the need to send jobs to the poorest parts of the world, just so they can make 11 billion a year?

Capitalism can have a role to play, but not when bankers can bet against their own investments and make more money doing that.

Yes I do.

As for regulated - It does not work.
Unless you can give a Real Working Example?

Bankers are changing
It takes time.

Regulating doesn't work? That's just insane.

Bankers aren't changing, they have no need to. Not one banker has been prosecuted for their part in the world economy crash. Massive bonuses continue to be paid out and the government continue to protect them. That is not a culture in which bankers will ever change.

This thread is Not about Bankers.

of your views.
