Why haven't we replaced the dying ISS? why China did?

Why can't we offer universal health care? why China did?

There is a lot of debatable things China did, but when it comes to its citizens, they are properly taken care off to move forward

From a poor emerging country to a developed one in record time, you have to be a strong collective and have the support of your own people to achieve this feat

Our model of society stagnated, we must reinvent ourselves to move forward, otherwise we are headed towards dark times



Chinese workers in rural areas make less per day than any one of my laying hens produces in income at the current price of eggs.


That's apoignant comparison, reminds me of when i had the realization that parking meters downtown Chicago make more than minimum wage.


Why would that surprise you? Parking is expensive, and should be.


> but when it comes to its citizens, they are properly taken care [of] to move forward

Except for Uyghur citizens apparently, unless of course they have drastically mangled the meaning of 'taken care of' beyond all recognition. The same if you're a Falun Gong member, or a dissident, or said anything bad about Dear Leader, or complained about the wrong corrupt business entity, or have a low social credit score for whatever reason, etc. If this nightmare is 'moving forward', then I prefer 'dark times' thank you very much.


Chinese don't have pension, health care, or anything similar. What misinformation are you partaking in?


Not my impression of China at all. Sounds like you reject western propaganda, yet you bought the communist propaganda wholesale.
