    I get that you are arguing from a place of good faith but China absolutely has less problems economically (for the average person) than the US does. For example I had a pretty tough familial loss recently and the medical bills were a whole nother level of suffering for my family. If we lived nearly anywhere else (let alone in China) the cost would be not only more affordable, but usually treatment is more affective as well(also related to cost tbh, bc you have better health outcomes the more time you spend in the care of good medical professionals and doctors, and the more time you spend with them, the more money you spend with them). I just wanted to give my 2 cents on how living in the US is a bit of a punishment in some ways and that you can draw comparisons between the US and China’s capitalist elements but end of the day, USA is a way worse form of capitalism. I hope I didn’t come off rude or anything, I wish you a good day😊
