Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro Reveals 5 Major Challenges Leading to China’s Inevitable Collapse
In the second episode of his new YouTube series, “Facts,” Ben Shapiro, the renowned Daily Wire Editor Emeritus, delves into the five major challenges that will ultimately lead to China’s “inevitable collapse.”
Released on YouTube last Saturday, Shapiro’s episode sheds light on the demographic, economic, and political problems that hinder China from becoming the world’s preeminent power.
The Real Story of China: A Power in a State of Inevitable Collapse
“The real story of China is far, far scarier because China is a power in a state of inevitable collapse. The only question is when and how much damage they’ll do before the Chinese regime implodes,” Shapiro said.

The Aging Population
China’s long-standing one-child policy has resulted in an increasingly elderly population. Despite reversing the policy in recent years, the demographic trends remain irreversible due to past mass abortion and infanticide targeting girls.
-
Lack of Innovation
China’s state-controlled mercantilist schemes hinder innovation. The entire Chinese economy relies on producing things at scale, undercutting foreign markets, and stealing technology. As the young working population declines, this becomes more challenging. China is attempting to fill the gap with robotics.
-
National Debt
China’s economic growth has been fueled by mounting debts. The existence of “ghost cities” exemplifies the hollowness of the Chinese economy. These empty cities were created through excessive borrowing for government-created apartments, leading to an unnecessary housing supply.
-
Military Inferiority
China’s military lags behind the U.S. in terms of technological capability and the ability to project power. The stifling economic and political environment in China hampers innovation, while the American defense industry produces far superior technology.
-
One-Party Dictatorship
China’s one-party dictatorship severely limits its ability to adapt to social and economic problems. This lack of flexibility further exacerbates the challenges the country faces.

China’s Shaky Foundation
China is in very serious trouble. While it may not break apart into a million polities, the current regime is on shaky footing. This instability will likely drive them to become more aggressive in the near term to shore up their foundation. If they fail to do so, the collapse will happen sooner rather than later,” Shapiro concluded.
