It's one of the most immoral places on the face of the planet. I suppose you'd prefer living in Bangkok or Dubai, to living in America as well?

It is the greatest economic success story in the world. The USA is second. Hong Kong is nothing more than a rock with a whole bunch of disparate people who are at odds with each other. Because the governor of Hong Kong for the majority of its existence insisted on no interference, the colony prospered. It prospered for one reason: they left it alone.

It is one of the wealthiest places on the face of the earth.

You idiotic statement about morality in Hong Kong is not something I can deal with without calling you names. And I refuse to do that. Sorry.
