    If a billionaire is in actual trouble, he’s in China. US would have bailed out Evergrande.

      I have pretty severe concerns about how the Chinese government operates, but this is one thing they do right.

          Yeah, well, I like having rights so we’ll just have to accept that everything can’t be perfect.

            You know the majority of the world has the same if not more rights than you. Take Canada, I can go to any hospital without worrying if I will become bankrupt. I can own the majority of firearms this world has to offer and if I get pulled over, the police can not legally rob me because the money I have on hand isn’t drug money unless there is difinitive proof that it is.

            Typical American Exceptionalism take. Hey buddy, there are hundred of free countries that provide their citizens with inalienable rights.

            How about you take your “America can do anything” attitude and apply it to GOOD instead of killing others?

            American CAN do anything it wants, like helping its citizens.

            It chooses not to.
