      Pick any city in the Midwest and compare to any proportionally sized city in China. Like just about. Infrastructure is crumbling everywhere in this country while China has built more high speed rail than every other nation on the planet combined.

      The priorities speak volumes.

        Whenever i see some documentaries about china, japan or south korea, i’m actually blown away. They are in a big city that is recognizable, and then they sit in a train for an hour and land in a city that i haven’t heard of ever, that is somehow 3x bigger. I really wanna visit some day, but maybe i’d just be overwhelmed

        Lol dipshit have you ever been to China? The small cities they consider sleepy bergs have ONLY 1 million lol. That’s ten times the equivalent city in the Midwest at minimum.

        The images are from Houston.

        The parking lot picture is from the 1970s, so probably not exactly fair to compare to a modern city. I don’t know (care about) how it looks now.
