Participantthere is no doubt that the government is planning and hoping for inflation.
the citizens would prefer it over additional collapse in their home value.
inflation is preferred over deflation.
but the most important thing:
inflation makes the debt less burdensome. and globally we are still in the position to inflate our way out of certain doom.

ParticipantA few things I have observed throughout the years.
#1. This is a consumer driven society. Everyone is trained that customers are ALWAYS right. They bring that expectation to the medical world too. IF someone comes in to see the doctor, that doctor is EXPECTED to be 100% right after the first evaluation. What is the best way for a doctor to be 100% right? Order as much studies as possible. And prescribe medication as much as possible too. This is a service driven issue.
#2. There is severe and unusually harsh penalty for the physician if something was missed or if they make an error. On the other hand there is no penalty in fact there is reward for doing more than necessary. ALL physicians I know have heard stories of a doctor, rightfully or wrongfully sued. A lawsuit can mean years of entanglement with the snail paced justice system. It can also mean the end of someone’s livelihood. Essentially, a lawsuit, be it RIGHT OR WRONG, is the end of a doctor’s life as he or she knows it. THEREFORE, this is an extremely strong incentive to do as MUCH as possible.
#3. THEREFORE, because of the above two reasons, nobody want to put their neck out and anger patients or families by saying what needs to be said, which is, you or your loved one is dying, stop wasting everyone’s money and go on hospice.

Participantunfortunately the real loser in the round is Taiwan.
The basis of China’s claim is that Diaoyu islets are part of Taiwan. And since in China’s warped mind Taiwan is “part of China” of course Diaoyu islets are part of China.
With the Taiwanese voice completely missing in this issue, the Taiwanese KMT government essentially is acting like a local government.

Participantit is an ok buy. as a former model home, it is significantly upgraded. but purchase price of former models are typically significantly higher than actual peak pricing.
as I recall, in ’08 they were selling these at $1 million and by now new homes are at high 700. with the upgrades available in this particular one, $880k makes sense.
problem is there is minimal bedrooms, only TWO!
I guess these are really targeting the baby boomers.
here’s the link to the new homes:
