Fasco-capitalst is an exaggeration, but there’s no way a country intentionally keeping the standard of living of the working class that low, just to remain as the world’s sweatshop is Marxist-Leninist nation.
Over the past 40 years, the number of people in China with incomes below $1.90 per day – the International Poverty Line as defined by the World Bank to track global extreme poverty– has fallen by close to 800 million
China’s battle against poverty has benefited the largest number of people in human history
Something like 70+% of Chinese millennials own their own home as they are experiencing a massive boom in jobs, pay, and benefits. Meanwhile ess than 40% of US millennials do. It’s much less when you account for mortgage vs actual paid off.
You can just walk down any fucking street in China and see happy looking young couples with kids. 2 hours there would prove to anyone with eyes and moderately functioning brain how prosperous the society has become.
damn that’s crazy bro factory wages are actually getting bigger and bigger in China because people don’t want to work in factories since they’re going to college, China hasn’t had sweatshops for decades and they’re actually keeping prices low because they make economies of scale You should learn advanced economics probably
Fascinating. I’ve often seen very video game-esque simplifications of complex geopolitical and economic situations, but to think all Xi has to do to fix the standard of living is just turn a slider up like in a video game! Doesn’t he know that the 10% happiness boost the people get will outweigh the additional income cost per turn, especially in the long run? And he hasn’t even started trying to build any world wonders smh.
I wasn’t aware that the western world has cheap healthcare, protects striking workers that kill corrupt bosses and capitalists, and raises the minimum wage every few years.
Don’t forget the mass transit system that connect almost the entire country at this point. China is the world leader in high speed rails and they how have trains that can beat actual planes. lol. Meanwhile the US has literal hundreds of freight train derailments every year as the infrastructure crumbles.
“But that’s whata-burger-izuhm you evile Ten-Key! Don’t you know that Xinnie the Flu forces Wiggluer- Yoghurtz onto his trains to give them free healthcare!? At least in the U.S. you have the right to complain while traveling through our smog-filled cities!”
At least in the US you have the freedom to sit for hours in traffic every day going to and from the job you hate making less than what you need to survive.
I HAVE THE FREEDOM TO PICK BETWEEN 20 DIFFERENT ICE CREAM BRANDS AND PIZZAS IN THE FREEZER AILSE, I’M FREE TO CONSUMMMEEE. I WANT TO GIVE ALL MY MONEY TO 3 BIG CORPORATIONS SO THEY CAN LOBBY CONGRESS AND MAKE MY HEALTHCARE WORSE AND MY DEMOCRACY WEAKER. CAUSE EVEN THOUGH MY CREDIT CARDS ARE MAXED OUT AND MY STUDENT LOANS ARE ALMOST DUE AGAIN. WHO KNOWS I MIGHT BE A BAJILLIONARE ONE DAY ADN WHEN I AM I DONT WANT TO PAY TAXES AND HELP MY FELLOW MAN, SO I’LL JUST DIE ON THE STREET INSTEAD OF SUPPORTING CHANGE LING THE STATUS QUO. CAUSE MUH FREEDUMMMSSSSSSSS

That truly sounds like hell

The west probably would say Satan is communist, so hell indeed (and please Satan, grant me a place there!)
The West here, can confirm.
Hail Comrade Satan!

Happiness slider is inefficient he should be trading for luxuries and spending his gold to buy techs smh
You do realize they’re a developing country right?
Developing toward all the same flaws as the western world, yeah.
