China doubles value of infrastructure project approvals to stave off economic slowdown amid trade war...
https://www.scmp.com/economy/china-econo...vals-stave
The National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) has approved 21 projects, worth at least 764.3 billion yuan (US$107.8 billion)... amount is more than double the size of last year†s 374.3 billion yuan (US$52.8 billion) in approvals recorded over the same period, which included 11 projects such as railways, roads and airports.
Local governments have been under increasing pressure from Beijing to support the economy, but they have less budget room due to lower tax revenues after the central government over the past year ordered individual and business tax cuts.
To fill the gap, Beijing has allowing local governments to sell more special purpose bonds, whose proceeds can only be used to fund infrastructure projects. At the beginning of this year, the Ministry of Finance raised the quota for special bonds to 2.15 trillion (US$302 billion) from 1.35 trillion (US$190 billion) last year.
And when local governments came close to exhausting their annual quota set this autumn, the central government brought forward a portion of their 2020 quota so they could continue to raise funding for new projects.

Thanks for posting and the reminder. I heard about this coming, but don't know the details other than it is focused on large government infrastructure. But if that includes government financed healthcare, then that might be good for me.

Go on social media and call some non documented person an illegal alien or say a man is not a woman and see what happens.

What could possibly go wrong? Outside of soccer mommies, I can't see this ever going over well in the US. This would get punk'd, yesterday. I hope.

The frog with the scorpion on its back never thought it was in danger either. After all, it was assured it was safe.
