China: Disparity Between the Rich & the Poor

The rich and the poor live together in China. But, exactly how rich and poor are the people?

I did this for a school project (unfortunately,the second song didn't play when I tried to show my video in class, but i FINALLY got it on Youtube, and now the entire video is working the way it SHOULD be=])

*Note*: Ok..so originally I had Fergie's "Glamourous" song and others, but Youtube decided to take em off beause they were copy-righted material, so please bear with the no-music video:/

Looks like their Communist Party should change its name into "Crony Capitalist Party"

@loserkiller007 Exactly this should not come as surprise. If anything credit sould go to the Chinese government for reducing the poverty levels from about 85% to less than 20%. No country in the world has rich people only. Even America or Europe has homeless people, starving people who are fed at welfare centres etc.

@laowei2000 I agree; the Romanians going to work in the nearby wealthier countries, such as Spain, Italy and UK: when they first started to emmigrate en-masse, the employers were surprised--Romanians were very fine working for lower-than-average wages in those countries.

Now, the governments seek to ballance that, therefore crisis.

It can be clearly seen that ''poorer'' countries pay (regarding lifestyle) for the ''richer'' countries.

@soupflood but in china they would have killed all the protesters

China is modern day slavery. working and living conditions for ordinary people are terrible.

they can't afford a decent life from there salary. living costs in big citys are already higher than in western places where the average income is about 5 times higher. not only in shanghai or beijing also in many smaller citys.

the rise of China's economy will not go on much longer. China will cause the next world economic crisis and this time a real big one. so, be prepared, in less than 10 years.
