Man it must suck to "own nothing" from the comfort of their own house and food on the table.
Sucks when the gov doesnt like you and just decides to kick you out, because you dont own anything in "communistic" countries compared to "democratic" or highly capitalistic countries... wait, I dont think you own your own house either in america compared to EU countries. Additionally some EU countries give you high safety and home when you lose everything.
USA has Eminent domain, so yes, neither the Chinese nor the Americans actually own their houses.
But when one has an insanely high homelessness population, you really have to ask yourself which you would prefer.
Both are high afaik.
So the answer is neither. There are more countries that are far more superior.
Its also stupid to question if I want a bad country-1 or bad country-2. Why do I need to decide between two of the worst countries? Why can't I look for something far and obviously better? Just because they are the loudest or are looking like the complete opposite?
Its like questioning if someone wants the red hell or the yellow hell. Why do I want to have a hell at all?
China 89.68% home ownership
China 2,579,000 homeless (0.18%)
United States 65.9% home ownership
United States 653,104 homeless (0.19%)
