[QUOTE="darcelina4, post: 1616947, member: 27059"] Have any of you actually ever been to China? I have. In 2008, I went to watch the Olympics. Beijing is huge. I cannot emphasize enough how much bigger the scale of building is there. The one city has as many people as all of the us combined. An apartment complex there is like 6, 30 story buildings. The building that was going on there when I was there was shocking. Cranes everywhere. As building is government owned or supported in some way, they do not have the slow permit process we have here. Noone is protesting building a hospital. I believe they can build it fast. I hope the cement has enough time to cure so the building doesn't collapse. I'm sure it will be a no frills hospital but the bill will also be low. It is cheap to live in China compared to the us. One shocking thing I observed was that in the city of Beijing I didnt see a single bird. When I went to the great wall, I did see birds 100 miles from the city. But not many. They had killed birds to prevent the spread of bird flu. They should have first did an environmental study as the missing birds would have eaten the insects that were taking over. China is very different from the US. I dont want to live there. But they can really out build us. [/QUOTE]
