China’s Economic Rut: Beyond the Reach of Any Leader

Over six months since the latest economic rescue measures, China faces persistent deflation, with May’s CPI at negative 0.1% and the Producer Price Index at a 22-month low. These policies, aimed at tackling deflation, have failed to reverse the economic downturn. Systemic issues, particularly around resource extraction and distribution, hinder progress. While authoritarian regimes can drive early-stage growth through extraction, they struggle with fair distribution as economies mature. China’s high extraction fueled past GDP growth but lagged in disposable income, unlike India’s model. As growth slows, the focus must shift from infrastructure to high-tech investment, though inefficiencies persist. Inequality, evident in civil service job allocation, exacerbates public discontent, with declining consumption and birth rates. Reform toward fairer distribution is critical, but the system’s extraction tendency limits change, trapping China in a cycle of subsidies and inefficiencies.
