The youth unemployment rate in China is nearing 20%, ATH. And this is just the beginning—the AI-driven unemployment wave hasn’t even arrived yet. After the economic reforms, there were two periods of high unemployment, both of which resulted in two sensitive terms that will get your account banned if mentioned within the Great Firewall. Before the economic reforms, during the high unemployment period, the great leader still had enough mobilization power to wave his hand and send people to the countryside. BTW, even back then, the youth unemployment rate wasn’t as high as it is now. Wonder how long the young people who can’t find jobs can hold onto their pride from the military parades?
