Just to make it clear: I am not personally stating that the #ThreeGorgesDam on the Yangtze will collapse.
My point is that its problems with erosion and floods in a country which has been historically plagued by catastrophic floods are a symptomatic illustration of CCP failings. The CCP objectives (self preservation, total domination) impulse it to use massive means to reign in its opposing forces (here: the Yangtze River) but also conflict with the self discipline needed to achieve these undertakings. This leads to actual poor results.
