China's economy is miserable! There are reports on the Internet that a large number of elderly and young people are digging through trash cans to eat food waste

China's economy is sluggish and youth unemployment remains high. Many people have no way to make a living and can only make a living by eating food scraps thrown away by others or picking up salable garbage. X platform accounts such as "Teacher Li is not your teacher" have recently posted many poignant videos of old and young people digging through trash cans to find food and picking up trash to sell.

Zeng Zheng (@JenniferZeng15), a member of the International Press Association and a self-media person, released a video on the X platform on the 15th. In front of the CCP propaganda display board called "National Unity, Creating Harmony", an elderly man stood next to a dirty trash can. He grabbed a plastic bag in the bucket with his left hand. He took food out of the bag with his right hand and put it into his mouth one bite at a time.

Zeng Zheng wrote: "Years after Xi Jinping and the Communist Party claimed to have solved the poverty problem of the Chinese people, more and more Chinese people are digging through trash cans in search of food!
