Yeah Singapore feels the same (though probably to a lesser extent). I'm just not sure if in the case of China it's specific to a few cities or the country as a whole.

But like...Mississippi? Have you been to Des Moines Iowa? I don’t see how it’s not analogous.

So you're saying country China is more energetic than country USA and city China than city USA?

Yup, big time. Not even close.

The only reason they don’t have more economic immigrants: 1) language 2) they’re more XEnophobic than USA

Yeah i mean if only 10% of all the Chinese diaspora starts moving back they probably don't need to change that.

Don’t get it again. So cities: huge economic energy, the feeling that everything is getting better all the time. New buildings, new transport, bridges going up everywhere. Towns: again same economic energy with considerably more economic opportunity.

Start a factory, buy from a local one, start a Taobao shop. For any physical good you are #1. For pure tech, funding is widely available and things move fast fast fast, we are behind in many areas.
