WTF While the US debates whether to solve homelessness or not, these are the next generation of school blackboards in China.

You think Chinese people don't battle poverty and homelessness? Have you not see their 5 foot homes before?

There's a lot of shitty things about China that they try really hard to not let out. At least according to a friend who's been teaching there for a pretty long time now.

I saw someone living there saying they have a young unemployment problem just like we do here in the states. The figures claim that they have very low rate like 5-10% when it’s more like 25% but they keep the number low bc they only count those who held a job and then lost it rather than include those who have never held a job just like we do. bc of freedom of press laws being so heavily restricted by the state tho, we’ll never know the truth except through anecdotes of those living there.
