Normally, I wouldn\’t reference an article in The Wall Street Journal here, since you have to be a paying subscriber to gain access to its online content. But yesterday\’s issue included a feature that\’s worth reading in order to understand the labor market that exists in China right now — and The WSJ is having an open house, which means you can get to the article for free.
