China opens the debt taps again as economic growth slows to multi-decade lowsChina's central bank makes its biggest single-day cash injection into its economy as fears of a hard economic landing mount, writes Stephen Letts. They thought they could go toe-to-toe with the Powerhouse that is America under realDonaldTrump. As all can see, they were sorely mistaken. America is back, baby! Capitalism will be the death of us all at this rate, and China isn't helping. They should remember the Soviet catastrophe of economic models that were based on all getting a job, being fed, clothed & housed by the state.

KirstyLNeedham lots of drugs that were foiled on their way in to Australia The Chinese have their own laws! not sure why they have to be criticized! we don't criticize the USA with their choice of justice ( executions) why are we criticizing China for doing us a favour? strange! KirstyLNeedham Quite fair. John Howard and our AFP outsourced the death penalty for Australian citizens to Indonesia a few years back, allowing drug mules to leave on a plane before alerting their counterparts in a death penalty state. KirstyLNeedham Zero tolerance for drug manufacturers, traffickers and dealers! First thing I agree with China on!

China hands death penalty to Canadian drug smuggler in retrialA Chinese court has sentenced a Canadian man to death after he was convicted of involvement in a drug ring that attempted to send 200 kilograms of methamphetamine to Australia. KirstyLNeedham Australian intelligence did the right thing by telling China and at least China has the balls to hand down the death penalty. Now that piece of shit smuggler can no longer ruin society. China is one of the better countries when dealing with drugs and huge respect to them. KirstyLNeedham If you got 15 years for smuggling Meth into China a smart person would look at a 15 year sentence and think themselves e tremely lucky. This guy has had bad advice and clearly not learned risk assessment at any point.
