China’s Shadow Banking System: The Next Subprime?

Post by MachineGhost »

It’s always something, isn’t it? We’re still cleaning up the mess from the massive debt-fueled housing bubble in the US when suddenly we’ve got to deal with Europe’s public finances. We haven’t even gotten started on that one when a third debt debacle starts rumbling, in China.

Debt-based currency + fractional reserve banking = house of cards.
