i would literally kill for half the amenities they have in China.
Given that I live in the US Empire, a number of things will go differently for socialist construction. The US Empire is de-industrialized, and is a settler-colony. Decolonization and re-industrialization will both be required. However, certain aspects of China's experience with socialism will also be experienced by the socialist state replacing the US Empire in this hypothetical, and I support that as well.
