Very important and not well known argument. If westerners need to sacrifice even a tiny bit of their lifestyle they flip shit. Even if the stuff you sacrifice is arguably useless anyway (not like food or shelter).
Throw in the fact that the Chinese can control their populace much more effectively with state-owned media, instead of a rambunctious domestic U.S. press, and, yes, I'd say the survivors of the Cultural Revolution, have the edge over the inhabitants of the land of plenty.

US media not so sure about. On the one hand I think they are often servile when it truly matters (wars, trade). On the other hand people are noticing this and stop listening.

But that doesn't invalidate your point. China govt has means of control and the US does not.
