Riots In China

There have been videos popping up (and quickly being disappeared) from the internet since daybreak in China (earlier in the afternoon here) of riots. Workers in Hubei province are no longer under quarantine. Some of them work across the Yangtze River in Jiangxi province (where the quarantine was lifted a few weeks ago). Police in Jiangxi would not let them enter. Crowds gathered, and there were videos of the Hubei police attacking Jiangxi police.

Way back when, I mentioned that another thing a solid macroeconomic keeps an eye on is social unrest.
