Yes a few years ago the stats were over 70% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck and are also typically in CC debt, also over 70% of personal bankruptcies are due to medical debt so both finances and health are in serious trouble, meanwhile China has a over 40% gross savings rate meaning almost half of their disposable income is saved, and disposable income is after rent/mortgages, utilities, etc. the disparity is insane, that’s why when so called analysts start going China economy is in trouble over the last decade, I’m laughing. They are not only getting richer, their healthcare is improving by leaps and bounds and every year you see improvements, slow and steady. They do screw up quite often but their reaction time to attempt to fix their issues is insanely fast, someone once said the difference is in America you cannot change the policy but you can change the party while in China you can change the policy but you cannot change the party. As I get older, I’m starting to like the Chinese system more and more. I think leaders need to be qualified and have the experience and track record to manage a country but most importantly they need to be accountable and not immunity this immunity that and they should be providing the people with what they want and not what the minority elites want. I guess this makes me a CCP bot 😅.
