That is why China is losing to the US. China massively more social programs than the US and it has reduced their economy to shambles because no one has incentive.

Shambles?

China forces its citizens to work 12 hours a day, 6 days a week. The idea that it has better social programs than the US is utterly laughable.

As someone who lived there for 5 years, this is laughable and totally untrue.

I'm guessing you heard that some tech companies have a 996 policy and inferred that the government is somehow imposing this on every single worker in China.

		As someone whose only idea of China is what I see in western media and what I project onto it based on my deepest fears, it is 100% true.
