    Chinese infrastructure developing is truly impressive. I guess that’s one benefit of being in an imperial dictatorship.

      They are ostensibly a one party state, not a dictatorship. While Xi is the paramount leader, he claims he isn’t a dictator and I totally believe him. Also it seems like he doesn’t have absolute control, but what do I know.

        Not just this one. But I think you are overestimating such improvements over strategic ones that the US is still doing more. Say, Starlink really turning into some sort of planetary cell network.
