Population size does not translate into manipulating the facts.
The facts are these.
1. US per capita GDP is 5 times China's (down from 50 times, four decades ago).
2.
US inequality is greater than inequality in China.
3. US poverty is evidence of greater
systemic economic dysfunction BECAUSE of the above two facts.
Entrenched and growing homelessness in the US (and Oz) is not "manipulating the facts".
Here's the facts
The US submits to a free media, investigative journalism and freedom of information.
In China under the CCP you can be arrested for attempting any of those; even arrested for filming a wedding; anything that exposes the CCP for what it really is - a mob of gangster families, particularly those who can trace their respective family's rise to association with Mao.
Alcoholism is rampant in China under the CCP. Even among the CCP, the capacity to drink yourself blind is an asset to climbing the CCP gangster ladder.
In China under the CCP, bashing women is as common as 2-minute noodles.
Inequality is entrenched in China under the CCP; just ask a minority or a migrant worker.
Poverty is widespread throughout China under the CCP.
China under the CCP is a dump.
