Hey fellas, excellent work. I was hoping you could do a little 10 minute breakdown of how China has been riding on their "poverty alleviation" coattails for thirty years now. There was a time when China was one of the poorest nations on earth, and so, allowing outside investment, and raising hundreds of millions of people above 700 USD per year took them out of "extreme poverty." However, what nobody mentions is that the poverty metrics change once you are a wealthier nation, and they change over time. China is now considered a "high-income developing nation," and the extreme poverty line for such an economy is 6.85 USD per day. Additionally, even the global extreme poverty line has increased due to inflation. The CCP has convinced tens of millions of people that it lifted every Chinese person out of poverty, and even if we give them that claim (we absolutely shouldn't), those figures stopped meaning anything once they were the second largest economy in the world and had their own space station! Could you guys please do a breakdown on modern day poverty in China, also comparing it to Japan and Taiwan? This doesn't need to involve the ABP at all. Let's compare Asian nations like Singapore and S Korea to China, so whataboutism with America is never an issue. Thanks!!

How much time do y'all think will pass until that bridge has a catastrophic failure? It spans a massive canyon, so the inevitable won't be pretty. Also, you've said only one city in China (Qingdao) has good drainage, due to being built by Germans. How do Hong Kong and Macao -- Brits & Portuguese respectively -- measure up?
