You really need to work on having any logic at all in your arguments. Chinese cities are the highest cost of living areas in China, but it's certainly not because of liberal regulation. But you ignore this, because it disagrees with your predispositions. It would destroy your religious viewpoint if you were to admit that much of the high cost of living is just the market at work, and natural frictions within that market, so you blame something you hate instead. You're a typical fundamentalist, you're mouth is open by your mind is closed tight. And when somebody mis-reads part of your ignorant and utterly fact-free argument, you attack them on that, instead of admitting that I gave a list of examples that show that your entire premise is utterly and completely idiotic, and devoid of anything resembling logic.

> Chinese cities are the highest cost of living areas in China, but it's certainly not because of liberal regulation. Try failing harder. The primary factor that makes the cost of living high in Chinese cities is their property bubble, which is a direct result of government regulation. Foreign investment is restricted for Chinese citizens and weak property rights under the authoritarian government make other types of domestic investment risky.

  Let me guess: Sao Paolo is expensive because of government. And Moscow. Etc. In fact, no matter what country you pick, the most highest cost of living nearly always in the most thriving cities. Any intelligent, sane, informed, and/or rational person would realize this means that this means markets are a driver. But you, like most Libertarians on this site, pretend that it's always the government, though always for a different reason. This is because you're a closed-minded moron who recognizes that government is always one edge away in the graph, and thus you can blame every single bad thing on it. You truly are a far-gone religious zealot who has lost any connection with reality. Enjoy your lonely, shitty, ignorant, awful life.
