      I am not gonna be like “China is ultimate utopia”, but I don’t see it as a lesser country to the USA or the UK

        To the US I can understand, but why the UK? Surely free healthcare more rights makes the UK overall better?

          Infrastructure there is better in some aspects and development is faster. I don’t really want to leave the UK though anyway. Like the UK has problems and I don’t see them going away anytime soon. While China appears to actually try and aim to fix problems with infrastructure, etc. Some people I knew went to China 10+ years ago, and they had issues with the likes of smog, people’s manners and public toilets which were not the case by the time I went. (Except the public toilets there are still not very nice)
