This benign and informative article sounds like a commercial for communism but it’s really just some guy that’s well off enough to have retired there to enjoy “the pretty girls”.

I wonder what the age is of the youngest “pretty girl” he has “enjoyed”.

It’s no different than the guy that moves down to Ctrl/Sth America to enjoy the Lolitas.

China, beautiful scenery, beer and pretty girls and no pot holes or trash. All hale communism.

metallicman is just an old perv

Any of those pretty girls or a family meber can get snatched up and disappeared if they speak the wrong words about the communist state.

worse than a nagging ex-wife.

Why would you let an ex-wife, nag? Just hang up. Don't answer. When you're done, you're done.

Does the article show the Chinese government’s reeducation camps and church burnings?

Went to China in2015 and have spent time in rural Kentucky. Still in metro Louisville. I would much rather live in rural KY. Our farmers use modern equipment and live in decent homes. The Chinese live in concrete huts.

Correction: Rural China is no worse than rural Kentucky... FROM 50 YEARS ago!

Conditions are FAR BETTER in rural Kentucky today than in rural China.

The Chicoms, in MANY ways, are going through the same kinds of social change that we went through in the late 60's and early 70's... especially when it comes to environmental protection and safety issues. They are still decades behind our standards.

I wish China had a Strong OSHA-like agency to bring their standards up to modern world levels.

Actually the U.S. is noted around the world for having unusually similar rural and urban standards of living.

Yes...I can understand that distinction. There is absolutely poverty everywhere, but as Dinesh D’Souza says, in the USA, even the poor people are fat.

I don’t hate or dislike the Chinese population. It is the government that I distrust and feel animus towards.

I’ve never been to China but I’ve been to rural Kentucky. Rural Kentucky is much better. All of the road signs are in English. I’m not likely to get lost. If I did, I could stop at a gas station and ask for directions. I couldn’t do that in China.
