China's GDP per capita is $13,000. When a country has people that poor and government funded bullshit cement blocks by the dozen, it's a pretty good sign that it's a communist or dictatorship shithole. Pyongyang has big buildings and dirt poor people. Would you like to live in China or North Korea? If China and their infrastructure are so great and America is so terrible then why are Chinese people leaving to come here and to Canada by the boatload? Why isn't China dealing with a record influx of immigrants? It's because nobody wants to move to the country with the longest train, tallest building, or fastest elevator. They want to live where they can make the most money. Nobody gives a shit about public transportation if it means you have to work 14 hours a day in a steel mill to afford a handful of rice to eat in your 10x10 apartment amongst 30,000 other dirt poor fuckers living in the 10x10 apartments next to you. I'm sure the people looking at all the tall buildings through the smog through the single window in their sweatshops are living the dream.
