Well for example it could be a wealth tax... $1M of 401ks taxed just for existing.
Edit: Or maybe you;d like to talk about government's straight up taking away assets: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_6102 . Sure they gave them cash, but that could have as easily been "401ks are cancelled, they're being treated as income this year"
I HATE American protectionism in farming. One such example is the ridiculous subsidies of corn that lead to obesity, feeding ruminants grain and even crappy cocacola!
Other terrbile side-effects of our agrisubsidies include crap processed food, agricultural practices built on assumption of nearly free water leading to droughts, nutritional deficiency in produce etc etc.
Remember this, If you do not like the status quo in China, then stop supporting it. As American companies economically invaded other countries, much of the culture became the norm. If you think censorship, collusion, corruption, disparity et al are ok traits for a society, then by all means keep inviting them into the country to control more and more of American culture.
The fact of the matter is that you/they cannot afford to keep things going, and the only way the market will correct is when people refuse to sacrifice more.
Your family loves you and based on that I can securely tell you that if you have to leave they will continue to love you. And if they truly are dependent on your support, they will follow.
Assuming you're not literally 100% broke (like $0 in the bank, $0 credit) you have the ability to travel somewhere close to make a less expensive life. Maybe Kamloops or more central like prince George?
There are some simple fixes to people's issues.
1) Charge more for everything
2) If you cannot get a good deal, then leave.
3) Stop playing games where you sacrifice yourself trying to compete against people who sacrifice very little but have much. These billionaires are flippant about these things because it cost them nothing (personally) to get the wealth. When you make $64M a year, a $4M condo is nothing. But when a paralegal and a plumber scrimp and save to try and compete, it will cost them everything. Better to just move to another city and not play the game. Or charge the billionaire $400 an hour for plumbing.
