China allegedly has at least 1.3 billion people residing within its current ample borders. (Has anyone ever counted?!)
China also has very many problems, as befits such a gigantic country trying to maintain the extraordinary economic success against the downside of a very troubled recent past.
Therefore, it could be regarded as axiomatic that China does not need any more problems, particularly self-created ones. And this is why I — who like many Americans sincerely wish China good fortune — am worried: Some of the new problems seem largely self-created.
