...wished to receive the profits they believed they had earned with me or to redeem their principal, I used the money in the Chase Manhattan bank account that belonged to them or other clients to pay the requested funds.

He has no significant assets; his home equity is gone. Houses comparable to his in more desirable neighborhoods are selling for less than the amount he owes to the Bank of New York Mellon.

In November, the government announced a $586 billion spending package, mainly in new infrastructure projects, and since then, policymakers have introduced a long slate of measures to boost consumer spending. The government raised pension payments to retirees from state-owned enterprises, hiked teacher salaries, cut sales taxes on some vehicles and subsidized purchases of appliances for rural consumers. Some local officials have even issued spending coupons. The effort to keep growth going at all costs will continue, the optimists say. "China needs to build...
