"growth" doesn't mean anything anymore when central banks can endlessly print endless amount of cash, we see the same pattern happen again and gain, the money goes up, and never goes back into the seeds of the society, it's too late, the system of using growth or GDP to tell the value of a country is outdated and proven to be wrong, it's a pure lie
US/EU stagnated, their cities rot, nobody invest in public infrastructures anymore, we don't educate our kids, even what's being built today lost all meaning, it's ugly, soul-less, we no longer build nice things ,it's about what is "cost" efficient, the west is long dead, greed and market doesn't want humankind to evolve, they don't want everyone to be prosperous, screw the future
China eradicated extreme poverty in their country in record time
While the west busy counting money, China sent a robot on the far side of the moon!
They are preparing a base for the moon
They lead fusion energy R&D
They lead stem-cells R&D
We, the west, are worse than animals
