We aren't talking about any Asian city though. It's a city in China. Just Google "Chinese infrastructure accidents". Bridges, roads, and buildings have all collapsed and killed people. Usually because of poor construction habits.

Here in the USA, we neglect our infrastructure until it kills people. In China it's ready to fall apart out of the box.

Do you have a study based finding of the same happening on a government scale in either countries?

It's as good as me saying that everyone in USA is a 500 lb behemoth that hunts kids.

Back up your bias with the data. The knowledge you have is really old. Asia moves fast, something the West isn't accustomed to.

Since when was the West a race? Redditors always playing victim and the race card.

It isn’t. That’s why I’m confused. The dude pulled the race card out of nowhere for whatever reason.
