feels like a huge part of this is the massive rise in property values, which reciprocally seems like life becoming unaffordable to more and more. this feels like the same sad pattern of "wealth" which has so dominated much of the west.
there are a lot of other legit wealths being created in china too, but the property boom still seems utterly defining, tried & true, and to me: sad. a sad way of stratifying wealth rather than aiding in the people's welfare.
