Fascinating. Within the past 2 years, the US suffered 98 people killed in a condo collapse, and a fairly serious (though thankfully non-fatal) bridge collapse. There's also the especially egregious case a bit further back of the New Orleans levies failing during Katrina. Must have been undercover Confucians.
I could provide examples all day of how Chinese culture and the CCP allows this type of phenomenon to continue unabated.
It isn’t to say that there are serious infrastructure concerns in America that continue to go unaddressed.
But the scale of graft and shoddy construction in China beggars belief. It extends into every aspect of enterprise, taking shortcuts is the absolute cultural norm.
