It's interesting to see that China has always had power issues (Apparently power to factories has always been rationed to one degree or another) and that this new unprecedented demand is now going to impact goods back here (this will show up in the form of higher prices - a supply side induced bout of inflation - what we've been dealing with). The biggest problem I see is the government restricting what power companies can charge residents and some commercial entities - coal miners are right to stop digging if the return on costs isn't there.

This is fundamentally an issue of the government attempting to manage the pricing structures of affected markets - it's not going well and I don't understand why this isn't understood by leadership?

Either way this could actually be a chance for the West to step up and develop industries back home as China struggles to contain costs through their own mismanagement.

Very interesting....
