Hi, All, I read that almost all of you want to tear down the USA, which could be understandable to certain degree.
I simply summarize all of you into two types of people: 1). those who have never been to US; and 2). the remaining are those who have never been to Europe. On the premise that all of you are out of China, presumbly in Europe or in North America
For the first group, try your best to make it to US, then you will DEFINITELY find what opinions and views about USA today is biased, at least, and through comparison, you all will DEFINITELY find that USA is a much better place for Northeastern Asian (presumbly, that you all can be put into that category).
For the 2nd Group, I could understand you mood and emotion, try to find a working opportunity to work in Europe for 6 months or longer, than you will DEFINITELY regret what opinion you expressed today about the USA.
As one of the few lucky ones, I spent my last two decades almost evenly in North America (mostly in States) and in Europe (mostly spent in France). And also as a Northeatern Asian male, I could PROUDLY tell you all, USA is 100% the BEST western country for Northeastern Asian, especially for Chinese origin males!
I was respected almost everywhere in States, in both east and west coasts as an engineer, and I could have normal interaction with almost all people I could reach. And I was respected as a prodcutive and intelligent CHINESE man, and good engineer everywhere I went! Actually, I was hired simply because I am CHINESE, four rounds interview, compteted with more than 100 WHITE engineers!
The only setback for me is that USA actually gave me a fasle impression abour ALL white people, to believe in that All White people are as honest as, as integral as, and as kindly as Americans, I paid a big price for that when I came to Europe!
In Europe, mostly in France, everywhere you go, if you say that you are Chinese, you are automatically branded as BAD people, everyone will wear a MASK when interact with you if they have to!
No apartment to be rented for Chinese in France! The French could cut off your electricity and water in winter time at -10 degree, just because you have a Chinese or Korean name! And the French could charge you 10 time more on Hydro comapring to normal French resident! All my white collegues have NEVER had that kind treatment
You will have to hire a lawyer for TAX return, becuase they always pick on you, after you paid your tax, they could send in another THREATENING LETTER to ask you to pay more, even include penalty, really insulting, after pais 50K EURO tax (in France, called impot), which is far more than average French's annual income, in States, you will get a BONUS letter from IRS, but in France, a Chinese will only get a threatening letter asking you to pay another 50K EURO tax, plus 10 - 15% penalty! On that stage, only lawyers from the embassy could help you out, and you have to spent BANK tax payment receipt and all other docments plus 2000 Euro legal expense! Simply because I am a CHINESE, that happened to me in 4 out of last 6 years! I with my team came here was in the invitation from Chirach, the fomer French president to help the French to build the most advanced semicondutor technology in Europe! All my white collegues, more than 150 of them have NEVER had that kind of hassle!
To make things worse, I witnessed SO MANY times those dirty, ugly, drug-addict alike Frenchmen Harass, Threaten and Beaten up Chinese students! Just because they are Chinese or Korean! I got involved into one conflict myself, fortunately or unfortunately, I didn't kill that son of BITCH Frenchman because my white collegues seprarated both of us! So anything happened in JINJIN could be totally understandable to me because France is a SYSTEMIC, INSTITUTIONAL and CULTURAL racist country towards Northeastern Asians, especailly Chinese and Korean origin people!
And the French are liars, cheat you if you are Asian! The Honest and TRUST I learnt in US had almost put me into a big trouble several times before. Once, the officer in the bank set me up with my account, caused me almost losing 5000 Euro; and the other time, they stole 500 Euro from my credit card! Those never happened to any my WHITE colleague expatriates, and Those never happened to me in the States!
I did a small survey with the help of a PSYCHIATRIST , on a sample around 20 Asain kids (born and raised in France), almost all of them have VERY severe MENTAL and PHYSICAL development problems comparing to white, even worse than BALCK kids! Those have NEVER happened in the US!
In the last 150 years, Not even single DECENT Chinese who has ever been to France had ANY good memory about the French! YOYO MA was born and raised in Paris, but don't mention his connection with the French, he is going to be mad! Zhou Enlai, Cheng Yi and Deng XiaoPing all had been in France, any of them had even one sigle good MEMORY about France?! Nope, at least, NEVER came out!
In other European countries, Chinese fared a little bit better than in France, but still far worse than in USA! Germany is the best one, the only country I saw Chinese kids having smiles on their face, and Austra, Swiss, Dutch and Scandinavia are also pretty decent countries! But none is coamparable to US!
So, my advice to all, try to come to Europe if you have never been, and MAKE it to US if you could!
No place in the western world can beat US for any ambitious, capable and intelligent Chinese (especailly male Chinese, not say, AL GORE's SON-IN-LAW is Chinese, it has never and will never happen IN France).

So, for all Chinese, especailly male Chinese, tear down US will NOT build China up! Only DESTROY FRANCE and part of Europe could bring LUCK to China!
As overseas Chinese, the only slogan we should have is: "Long live both China and USA, and Long live the friendship between American people and Chinese people!"
