I was amazed, until I had to scan my phone. Then it became I won’t be able to use it, because I’m not as nice as liberals think I should be.

China’s infrastructure is a bronze giant with feet of clay. Corruption and tofu dreg construction will take its toll in years to come.

China has the advantage of not having a feral underclass. China considers our "urban" ferals worse than dogs.

Have you tried bidding for a public contract in New York City or any of the big blue Democrat run cities?
They are corrupt through and through.
How much did California say their “high speed rail” will cost?
It’s like vastly more expensive than the Chinese High speed railways and much slower than the Chinese trains.

Plus China produces vastly more engineers than America, which produces plenty of affirmative action creeps and lawyers instead.

This sounds a lot like the Europeans who mocked the United States after the Civil War, "a hodge-podge of divided immigrants who will never get along and accomplish anything great."

China mandates an app on the phones of Chinese citizens that keep track of your social credit score. If you have unapproved behaviours, your score gets reduced and your ability to function in society also gets reduced.

And I’m just a bad boy.

What’s that got to do with how advanced their infrastructure is?
And vastly superior to that in America.
Try using the terrible subways in New York City and see where that gets you.

That may not be such a bad idea.
Odds of getting murdered in China are much lower than in America.

I said I was interested, until the guy said that you use your cell phone. That means, no matter how advanced it would be, I’d never get to use it because I would always have a low social credit score.

China is a totalitarian state. Big downside there.

As an foreigner Western visitors or migrants would be under high scrutiny and most likely unable to achieve a social credit score to have a care free life there.

I don’t know about its retirement visa situation. There are some Expats who are of retirement age and travel around Asia and post experiences on YouTube.

I believe in what Andrew Henderson says “Go where you are treated best”. He has a YT channel about being an Expat and having multiple passports, residences and visas.

When countries realize they are in competition for high earners and creative thinkers they change their visa and residency requirements accordingly.

This guy is a Chinese agent, I think.
Sure, he shows us some nice infrastructure, but he makes America look like a hellhole, when that hell hole was basically created by the cooperation between Democrats and the Chinese government.

Without freedom .......the so called infrastructure doesn’t matter a fig.

Its just candy to sedate the asses of enslaved people under tyranny.

There was always corruption in public works. Yet we built the Hoover Dam, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Empire State Building, etc., great marvels built by men using paper, pencils, and slide rules. But since about 1980, America has built precious little in the way of dams, railways, highways, seaports and airports. If you had an almanac from 1975, America led the world in the highest, tallest, and biggest buildings, bridges, tunnels, etc., with no rivals. A 2023 almanac is nearly a complete reversal. If the U.S. is on any list, it is usually well down and the construction was prior to 1980. China is the leader in these areas, with other Asian countries like Japan and South Korea and even Europe ahead of the former "arsenal of democracy."

China may be a paper tiger. But we are foolish to ignore the rampant signs of American weakness and decadence.
