It is so strange....
because it would be so simple for Chinese workers to be
very wealthy at the time of their retirement.....
China already has a banking system comparable to what President Abraham Lincoln did but it seems like the leaders are too selfish and focused on their own career and retirement goals to care about workers who produced so effectively for so many decades that they actually backed up the value of the Chinese currency????
The 'middle class' is the same middle class they had under Mao; they're all Cadre, with maybe an extra 10% of techs who weren't born into the caste. The rest work for peanuts in factory compounds that look more like prisons than factories. Behind all those nice buildings are warrens of slums and shacks.
The govt. routinely dismantle them and scatter them, same as we do here with the tent cities and underpass ghettos, when they get bad publicity that contradicts the 'Prosperity Gospel' spread by corporate media hacks and political parties.

Another false front is how these factory employees are living in dormitories, not houses or apts.
Factory
Factory worker dormitories in Chinese factories have become a topic of concern due to the reported suicides and poor living conditions. Foxconn, a major player in the industry, has decided to stop operating its own dormitories and has instead outsourced living arrangements to Chinese real estate companies. This decision reflects a shift in the industry's approach to worker accommodation, moving away from traditional on-site housing to more flexible and market-driven solutions.Business & Human Rights Resource Centre
The dormitory labor regime in China is characterized by shared living spaces, often with bunk beds and communal facilities. This system has been in place for many years and is a common practice in the garment sector, where workers live in dormitories at or near their respective factories.

However, the dormitory system has faced criticism for its lack of privacy, overcrowding, and safety standards. The shift towards conciliatory despotism, which combines coercive measures with soft control strategies, has been observed in the Chinese labor regime, reflecting changes in market dynamics and worker empowerment.

It's a labor racketeering scam, like all Communist regimes, and corporate America just adores them some Cadre.
