Reminder! China has 1,000,000,000 more people than the US. Not trying to be a China simp but fuck we need to fix the zoning and whatever else they got us in this mess if we can't even compete at this difference of population.

And I say this as someone who bought last July and would be kinda screwed if prices started going down

China is building a working class-centered society. Class isn't really determined by wealth, but by relation to production and distribution, and this is why China's approach has consistently resulted in continuous improvements!
