Eerie Chinese Ghost Cities
Reports of Chinese ghost cities have been trickling in for over a year. Previously, these reports were nothing more than abstract statistics but new images put a very real face on those figures.

Like a cheesy sci-fi flick where the human population has mysteriously vanished, these ghost cities sit eerily vacant while dead leaves collect in unswept and unused foyers. This is not Hollywood’s latest blockbuster but a stark reality.

Finance Asia http://www.financeasia.com/News/231364,a-question-of-time.aspx
reports that about 64 million apartments and houses have remained empty over the last 6 months. A truly shocking statistic considering that this figure represents potential housing for roughly 200 million people or almost two-thirds of the population of The United States. http://www.google.com/publicdata?ds=uspopulation&met=population&tdim=true&dl=en&hl=en&q=population+of+the+united+states "

NOTE: I am unable to access the Finance Asia article. It says due to being an older article, you have to subscribe to view it.

As soon as I seen the article, I wondered, is this like the jews who disappeared from Europe?
They claim it was a genocide, yet don't immigration numbers show they simply moved?

Why is it that any corner store / variety store / bus station rest stop/diner, in even the furthest stretch from any city, in the middle of nowhere,
I keep finding orientals / asians owning them or in charge of them, when it was only 30 years ago, it was still mostly Anglo's/Caucasians ?

Am I wrong in thinking that every major city in every country formed by Whites, now has one , if not TWO "Chinatowns" ?
They must be coming from somewhere, besides new births, so this story of "chinese ghost towns/cities" ...

It is indeed most interesting to ponder how it is exactly, that these people arrive on our shores as penniless waifs and six months later own a string of shops and drive a Mercedes Benz. When I and my forbears, much like you and your own, have worked our fingers to the bone since the dawn of time yet still have neither the proverbial pot nor window.

Another interesting aside to this story is the allegation currently simmering that millions of Chinese have been forcibly dispossessed of everything they own and shipped off en masse to work in the growing number of vast slave labor camps leaving whole regions depopulated. In a country wherein people are actually dismantled for spare parts nothing would surprise me as such.
