Quite true...

just wow...
nice to see they are spending our money well :(

used to have a pic like that for Mumbai

That's the result of outsourcing. -if you are where things are being sourced from now.

I see your point, but they hide the $hit-smeared rubble well. And how about this more accurate picture of Shanghai when the breeze isn't blowing... They destroy as well they prosper...

I don't understand how they can pump that much smog/smoke into the air to make it like that. Is the city ringed by tire-burning factories??

Thats nothing compared to turn of the century Detroit/Chicago/etc. here in the US.

LOL probably... the chinese peasents are forced to burn tires to stay warm while the chicom leaders and factory owners are living large in the skyscrapers.

The Chinese are using up resources and creating pollution at a good clip to be sure, but the U.S. is the LAST nation on this planet that has the right to point a finger at them in that regard. We took the gold medal in that sport, they are just clamoring for second place.
