American members are laughing at China's fast dropping housing and rent price. It's true that China's housing and rent price dropped significantly and real estate sector is experiencing restructuring. it's for a better, healthier economy in the future, US just keeps building up its own real estate bubble.

Same thing is happening in Australia.
House prices and rental rates are climbing sky high and public infrastructure is already stressed, but the government keeps making things worse by high immigration.
That's because the business lobby wants more consumers and business bribes the politicians. Young people and poor people, two groups who are most directly affected by high immigration, don't have the money to bribe politicians.

US Marshals shoot would-be carjacker near Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor's DC home
WASHINGTON (7News) — Two U.S. Marshals who were involved in the shooting of a would-be carjacker in Northwest D.C. were protecting property owned by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, according to law enforcement officials.
The shooting occurred on Friday, July 5 when Deputy U.S. Marshals were parked in front of a building near the U Street corridor in two separate vehicles.
As they were parked, a man later identified as Kentrell Flowers, 18, got out of a car and pointed a handgun at one of the Marshals in an attempt to carjack him, according to officials.
The Marshal fired his service weapon several times at Flowers. A second Marshal also responded and fired his service weapon, officials said.
Flowers was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and was later arrested and charged with armed carjacking, carrying a pistol and possession of a large-capacity ammunition feeding device, according to a police report.

Chinese officials saw a sign of bubble in housing market.
That's why they stop it before it was too late.
Yes, there's always certain effect.
But thanks goodness that Chinese officials popped the bubble much earlier.
What I fear is the USA real estate market bubble right now.

Man freed from from prison for murder admits another killer
Shaurn Thomas, now 50, who had received a $4.1million settlement from city officials in 2020 after he served 24 years behind bars for a murder he did not commit, is due back in jail.
Drug dealer who got $4m payout after he was 'wrongly' jailed for murder is sent back to jail after admitting another killing
A Philadelphia man who received a $4.1million settlement from city officials after he served 24 years behind bars for a murder he did not commit is headed back to jail.
Shaurn Thomas, now 50, pleaded guilty in court on Thursday to killing 38-year-old Akeem Edwards on January 3, 2023 over a $1,200 drug debt, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
He had previously been convicted of second-degree murder for the November 1990 shooting death of a Puerto Rican businessman, and was sentenced to life in prison.
But Thomas had long maintained his innocence - saying at the time of 78-year-old Domingo Martinez's death he was incarcerated at a juvenile jail, according to the Innocence Project, which helped get him released in 2017.
Attorneys from the organization discovered detectives knew Thomas had a potential alibi, and even had 36 pages of undisclosed witness statements pointing to other suspects, but zeroed in on Thomas because of statements made by two alleged co-conspirators.
Those co-conspirators' stories, however, changed over time, and one even wound up recanting his testimony - claiming that cops fed him a false story and assaulted him until he repeated it.
The Philadelphia District Attorney's Office ultimately declined to retry the case, despite prosecutors saying they were not entirely convinced Thomas was innocent.
Thomas was then released from prison and said at the time he had 'no animosity' toward the police, and planned to 'just move on forward,' according to ABC News.
Thomas was released from prison in 2017 with the help of the Innocence Project
Three years later, Thomas settled a suit against the city for $4.15million.
He had also joined a network of other Philadelphians who were freed from prison after their convictions overturned.
There, he met Ketra Veasy, whose brother, Willie, had his murder case overturned in 2019.
The two dated on and off for six years, and last fall, Thomas asked her to connect him with her childhood friend, Akeem Edwards, to see if he might sell some cocaine for him, prosecutors had said.
The ex-convict then gave Edwards a sandwich bag filled with drugs and told him to bring back $1,200 from the proceeds, which Edwards never paid by January 3, 2023.
That day, Thomas and Veasy met at her Delaware home and drove to Philadelphia to run some errands.
But before they returned home, she said, Thomas suggested they drive through the neighborhood to see if they could find Edwards.
When they ultimately spotted him, Veasy said, Thomas got out out of the car.
She later testified that she did not know Thomas had a gun with him that day and never wished any harm on Edwards.
But soon, she heard gunshots and saw Thomas running back to the car and putting the gun in his waist band.
He told her, 'He's hit, he's down, just drive,' Veasy recounted, saying she did just that.
On the drive back to Delaware, Veasy said her boyfriend made a shocking admission.
'He said it's his third homicide and he said he can't go back to jail,' Veasy testified.
She further claimed Thomas told her he knew where her children and her family lived and to 'keep my mouth quiet or else.'
But a few weeks later, a federal informant told homicide detectives that Thomas had discussed Edwards' murder with him and said Veasy was with him.
The informant also claimed Thomas put out a hit on Veasy out of concern she might cooperate with investigators, the Inquirer reports.
That led to a search of Thomas' home, where cops recovered five guns and a Gap hoodie that resembled the one Edwards' shooter wore.
Thomas was then arrested and charged with illegal gun possession, but was released on bail.
After being released, he had an on-and-off relationship with Ketra Veasy (center), whose brother, Willie, had his murder case overturned in 2019
Meanwhile, Philadelphia police continued their investigation, and received cell phone data that placed Veasy and Thomas at the scene.
They were both arrested in March and charged with murder.
While behind bars, Thomas sent Veasy letters she said were intimidating, and she ultimately agreed to cooperate with police and testify against Thomas in exchange for less serious charges.
Veasy wound up pleading guilty last year to aggravated assault and conspiracy charges, and is awaiting sentencing.
For his part, Thomas did not deny any of the claims in court on Thursday and pleaded guilty to six crimes, including third-degree murder, conspiracy and illegal gun possession.
He is due to be sentenced in February.

Time to boycott American overpriced shit such as: Ford, Coca-Cola, Hewlett-Packard, Apple products.
Instead buy the Chinese brands like Huawei, Lenovo, Haier, Hisense, BYD cars.
Japanese alternative can bought instead of American ones like: Sony, Nikon, Canon, Toyota, Toshiba, Panasonic.
Taiwanese alternative can be bought like: Acer or Asus

Start with boycotting loans from American institutions like IMF, World Bank.
Then boycott all American aid, throw all your F-16's and other US weapons to Arabian sea.
Finally, recall all Pakistanis from US and close down US embassy !.
