Remarkable observation and commentary. The economic/political/social situation in the US has indeed degraded to a dramatic degree. Have you a level of safety and security...and food quality that is satisfactory?
The answer to your question is yes. It’s strange but when I had to visit Hong Kong for 2 weeks, I actually felt safer in Beijing than in Hong Kong. I don’t know why though. Perhaps in Hong Kong it’s because they broadcast too many commercials calling for you to snitch on your friends and family to the cops if they are committing crimes. Funny, you don’t see those ads in Beijing. Hong Kong even showed commercials where you are required to call a police hotline if you see a puddle of stagnant water. And if you are caught littering you face up to 10 years imprisonment in Hong Kong. Meanwhile, Soros hired labor union thugs in Hong Kong to launch strikes to ruin his Hong Kong competitors.
