Another terrific article, thank you. I wonder, though, does Xi Jinping truly care about the economic standing of his people? I think it would be easy to conclude from his recent actions that he has an agenda, reunification with Taiwan and then becoming the global preeminent power, and all his actions are focused on furthering those aims. the nation's prosperity does not seem to be an important concern at least to the extent that it would gain priority over any of his more urgent goals. the deepening social control seems likely to be his view of how he can protect his 'flank' from an internal uprising. but ultimately, that has to be his biggest concern.
