@matthewstoller If that were the case Japan would of continued growing past the crash in the 80's. There is a reason there growth stagnated and they have a major cost of living, and population crisis.

Chinese dominance is 100% a result of state subsidies, which not only make it easy to finance entire ecosystems of production but also foster governance entirely focused on ignoring everything else in favor of making things. The technological capacity is real and impressive, it’s also not a result of competitiveness.
Michael Pettis@michaelxpettis

Very good piece by Joshua Busby on China's EV production. I only have one quibble. Busby says: "Xiaomi’s attempt to take on Apple and Tesla seems like one of those only-in-China stories. China’s scale of manufacturing — and the vast supplier ecosystems this sustains — make China arguably the only country where a mobile phone maker can try to become an EV maker as well." I would argue that the real reason a mobile phone maker in China can quickly pivot to becoming a major EV maker is because of near-unlimited financing at very accommodative terms. Anyone in China interested in expanding production capabilities in sectors deemed strategic by the government can raise enormous amounts of financing very easily, with little concern about eventually hitting hard budget constraints. But China's ability to do this wasn't an only-in-China story. It was also the story of Japan in the 1970s and 1980s. Every time Tokyo deemed a manufacturing sector to be of strategic importance, Japanese manufacturers quickly dominated that sector globally. For a while Japanese manufacturers in one sector after another seemed unassailable, but ultimately a country's debt capacity is always the constraint. No country can maintain global competitiveness forever if this competitiveness requires permanent increases in debt to fund the sources of its competitiveness (i.e., direct and indirect subsidies). The cost to Japan was a surge in overall debt that ultimate caused the whole strategy to reverse after 1990-91 in the form of an extremely difficult adjustment. China already has one of the highest debt-to-GDP ratios in the world (second only to Japan's), and it is rising at perhaps the fastest rate in history. Like Japan's, in other words, China's manufacturing success depends ultimately on an unsustainable increase in the country's debt burden. But while this cannot go on forever, Busby is right to say that EV producers in the US (and Europe) should nonetheless be very concerned. As the history of the US chemical industries demonstrates, a county's productive capacity in a particular sector can be undermined in a very short period, but it is extremely difficult to rebuild. thewirechina.com/2026/07/12/ame…

Nick Shirley uncovers an adult day care in Flushing, Queens with 7,000 phantom members. Nick: “This public document says you have 7,899 members.” Employee: “No, we don’t have 7,000 members.” Nick: “So you’re overbilling then? You’re getting paid $1,600 per patient — that’s how you got $12.9 million in 2024.” Employee: “Please leave.” American taxpayer dollars at work.

I've been getting a lot of comments about the Pitcher List glossary terms and how it's hard to keep track of them & don't understand why I do it. Let me explain. 1) Having a quick term is faster than reading multiple sentences. Saying "He's a Toby" is instantly understandable. This is the #1 reason why I do it. 2) Seriously, it saves me so much time not having to describe the same thing five times in five different ways in the same article to satisfy my internal writing critiques. I only make terms like SWATCH when it happens all the time. 3) We added tooltips years ago for these terms. See a word in bold & dark red? Just hover (or tap on mobile) and it'll explain it quickly. 4) It's FUN. Part of the joy of what I do is challenging myself creatively and having an outlet for my silly humor. 5) I actively enjoy ideating with the community about new terms and nicknames. 6) We have a glossary on our site that houses all random terms we've had over the years, and it's entertaining to view the library of archived jokes. 7) It's important for me not to write like a textbook. This is fantasy baseball. It's fun. I need to have these little jokes to keep it from being a slog. I hope this helps, y'all. I know it's not for everyone, and using the tooltips should get you up to speed quickly if it's confusing.

@ryangrim This idea I would actually support because it attacks the problem. The government seizing wealth from people will not stop at the billionaires. Eventually everyone would be paying a wealth tax and I can't fathom why we the people would grant the government that kind of power.

If they don’t like this we can also tax the loans they take out against their unrealized gains. Actually we can do both.

There are a lot of billionaires on this app who are obviously quite adept at making money, yet pretend they don't understand finance when it comes to the topic of a wealth tax. It's impossible! It's too complicated! We'd love to do it but it's unworkable! This is silly. Our financial industry has figured out how to turn the most abstract concepts into concrete financial products that can be traded in markets. We can obviously do this. Let's say we have an annual 1% wealth tax. It could easily work like this: Your shares in SpaceX or whatever are locked up and illiquid? Fine, just pay with 1% of those shares. No need to sell. You can easily create a financial product that is tied to those shares. Billionaires say they are afraid that they will have to pay a wealth tax on their assets and then their asset prices will go down, and they'll have paid a tax on wealth they no longer have. Fair enough! Just pay the tax with the shares themselves. If the price goes down, the government eats it, and you're no worse off. What about an asset like a Picasso? Easy. You create a derivative product that is worth 1% of your Picasso when it is eventually sold. Before it's sold, the government can sell that product into a market and exchange it for cash, or hold it. What the govt would obviously do is create Billionaire Asset Backed Securities and sell them as financial products just like we do with mortgage-backed securities or any other asset-backed securities. Derivatives are not new. The current problem we have is that billionaires own way too many assets in terms of homes and everything else. Because those assets themselves produce new income, they have to then buy more assets with that new income, which increases their price and endlessly crowds out the ability of normal people to own anything ever. That's why they tell you you will own nothing and be happy. They're certain of the former, don't care about the latter. If regular people are ever going to get back into owning homes or other assets, billionaires cannot continue hoarding them all. Quite obviously, a wealth tax is quite workable. The problem is billionaires just don't like it.
