In the USA some people are rich while all the others are getting poor, in China some people are rich while the rest are being lifted from poverty every day. Figured it out already. Have you?

Do you know who built it? Migrant workers who got better opportunities. How many US cities have risen in the last 50 years? Or maybe you'd like to change the subject yet again...
