Economists have expressed skepticism about the effectiveness of these policies, while consumer confidence remains low due to factors such as falling real estate prices and high youth unemployment. China's approach differs from Western countries by focusing on incentivizing the purchase of domestically produced goods and services rather than direct cash assistance.
