It isn't hard to see why China/India etc are on the rise while the West flounders in its own mire....
No National Health Service, (The third largest employer in the world after the Chinese PLA and Indian State Railways. No benefits system for anybody anybody who is not a citizen. No illegal imigrants, even tourists are fined and ejected if their visa runs out. No child allowance, no this that and the other politically correct quangos. It is quite easy when you have your finances sorted.
