You obviously know I meant the opposite. Not all of China is advanced. There were indeed homeless people and likely junkies. You can go into my post history if you want to see the longer story.
Congratulations, you've discovered sarcasm. (see what I did here?)
China has lifted 800mln out of poverty. 3,3% under the poverty line (for now). The US banana republic has11.1%.
China is the nr 1 in homeownership in theworld BTW at 96% And not even beginning about the junkie comparison.
Your post history just shows your Sinophobia in another comment under this posts and then I have to scroll back to see your 'expertise' comes from...second hand stories from a 2 week trip your wife took once.
And that expleinss she's butthurt bcs they don't have a groteskly obese population like the US and they ridiculed her for it.
I guess it's a more original reason for badmouthing them than the normal envy the US has for losing hard to them economically.
So LOL, cope
Thank you for teaching me sarcasm, I am in your debt. I’m also not an expert, and she’s not obese since she’s a personal trainer. You also forgot that she had a friend who also lived in the city she visited, for years might I add. It’s not just her experience. I also don’t think anyone was putting into question how fucked up the US is, because it most definitely is. The OP was asking a specific question and I answered it.
