      Li Yuan Retweeted Simon Rabinovitch

      This type of cheap labor-driven convenience is one of the reasons that make many middle class Chinese convinced that China is a better-run country than most other countries, including the US. The question is how long this could last.https://twitter.com/S_Rabinovitch/status/1168041151992979457 …

      Thread about my experience today shipping an oversized package in China. It's a small window onto how the country has maintained a big cost advantage in the production and export of goods, even as tariffs rise. (1/x)

      Yes, it's inherently unsustainable. Meanwhile, it's been going on for decades...

      Yes, it has. And I think that oddly unsustainable equilibrium is nearing its end, for a variety of reasons explored in upcoming book ‘The Myth of Chinese Capitalism: The Worker, the Factory, and the Future of the World’ (out March 2020!)
