Trump's Visit to China after a decade shows the superiority of the American system
In the past 10 years, USA per capita gdp has grown from 60k usd to 94k usd today. While china has only grown from 7k usd to 13k usd today.
The american system is far superior to the chinese one in every way, from legal, governance, economy, military, etc.
10 years ago the chinese earned a median income of maybe 150 usd and the americans 3500 usd. today, the chinese earn a median income of 250 usd and the americans 5k usd, surpassing china by over 20 times!
china is polluted, poor, corrupt and 30 years later will likely remain barely 5% of Singapore USA standards.
I am proud to be a citizen of the great state of Singapore

Beijing has been poor and dirty for centuries

peak china is already over btw. official forecasts there shows slowing growth. the ccp model of selling land to boost gdp has become unsustainable. young people there cannot afford property. they often pool money with 12 other family members just to put down the deposit for a lousy quality flat there that leaks water and has appliances that explode annually.
the property bubble comprises one third of their gdp and will eat into their consumption. businesses are closing en masse there and unemployment is crazily high. foreign fdi has plunged and china is firmly in the middle income trap.
i foresee next few decades we will see their median income stagnate, there will be deflation and stagflation and an L shaped long term recession.
civil riots and violence is very likely.
best to avoid investing or traveling to china in my view
