"China: Corruption & Crisis" with David Zhang

We welcome David Zhang back to the show! David Zhang, former writer for the Epoch Times, is an independent journalist who covers Chinese affairs on "China Insider with David Zhang". This episode is also co-hosted by our good friend and Green Beret Medic, Chris, from "Common Freakin' Cents Podcast"!

In this new conversation, the guys and David explore the changes in US-China relations, China's domestic crisis, and the shift in how China is viewed by the West. David delves into China's propaganda and optics, as well as the Eastern vs Western mindset.

Currently, China faces an impending housing market crisis. David discusses its impact on the Chinese economy and how eventually, their economy will collapse. David explains how the uncontrolled expansion of capital, mandatory financial benchmarks, the crackdown on Chinese CEOs, and the expectation of loyalty to the party have created a defective foundation for the Chinese economy.

Due to fears of disloyalty and unwillingness to reunite Taiwan with China, Xi Jinping initiated a purge of General Officers within the PLA's "Rocket Force". More suspicion is raised with the disappearance of the Chinese Defense and Foreign Ministers. Subsequently, David again discusses the abhorrent organ harvesting practices that have taken place in China over the last several decades. The conversation concludes with China's dwindling influence on the Belt and Road Initiative, potential conflict between the United States and China, the battle between good and evil, the impact of China's atheistic ideology, and the legacy of Chinese leaders.
