Why can't the United States build like the Chinese?
And don't say it's because of niggers or Jews.

1) Dubai and all of UAE has way better architecture and I would much rather live in one of those cities since they look more natural
2) We don't build shit like this because we don't need to impress anyone

No, what they need to do is to funnel whatever it takes into Iran to shore that place right up. They need to pour pour pour AD and missile tech into that place. Get consultants in too, and get some place where they can set up and test some of their stuff out.

Chinese building standards are fucking suicidal. Their building codes are optional if you bribe the right people, and even if you follow them, which no one does, they are insanely inadequate to meet safety standards. Meaning any building you walk into in China is an active hazard to human life in some capacity. Tofu construction is an epidemic in China. You can find load-bearing pillars filled with cardboard in billion dollar projects. Take any safety inspector to China, and they have a panic attack.

I love European and Middle Eastern architecture so much more, but this is what I'm talking about a natural looking city. The Chinese just look like they're trying way too hard to impress people with an unnecessary amount of LED and "why though" things.

I would also much rather prefer Tokyo even with all the ads.

>>509624203 (OP)
Because they have a society that is building based, you can only get money if you build things, you can only make money with real estate but now you can't even do that, you have Chinese who can't use immigrants as a crutch so they have to do everything themselves and a obsessive work culture ingrained from day one of birth.

Millennials unironically don't want to work construction because its beneath them, only marketing work is for them. China if you don't work you are human garbage that needs to go to fucking jail. The NEET absolutely doesn't exist in China.

the problem with china is that they designed too many CARCENTRIC cities. i watch driving/walking videos from around the world and to my surprise i found a shitload of cities in china not just shanghai that are full of 6 lane STROADS. i wish they would design cities centered around WALKING/CYLCLING, not driving. i made a list and every single video here is a different city and there are even more videos and cities but i got tired of timestamping all the 6 lane STROADS. and if you don't know what stroads are, feel free to ask. i'll also explain why they should stop building carcentric cities if you want

and remember, owning a car means wasting thousands of dollars on a car, gas, maintenance, parking fees, toll roads, traffic tickets, insurance, etc. not to mention your ability to drive a car is regulated by government bureaucrats and you must pay for a license (and renewal fees). we don't want to be more like china who is taking carcentric cities to a whole new level.

in the US, there are even conservative mayors are tryng to make their cities more walkable. remember, the meme of conservative being "anti-walkable" is just a few contrarians on the internet.
