I mean...

...I don't normally link to this avid member of the EOT ("End of Timers") crew, but I have been talking about precisely this kind of cronyism for years now.  What a galactic hypocrisy the "People's Republic of China" has become.

As I have said before, the inner circle is nervous and it is no wonder we see all this activity by Chinese firms in low income countries that would presumably offer good terms for expatriates to quietly live out there remaining days in the shadow of a "friendly" (read: purchased) Government.

Its obvious to me that the Revolutionaries and their children know a winter of discontent when they see it...and have decided to quietly ferret away assets for the day of reckoning.
