It would be nice if we could build affordable housing here in the US.

The high rises in the thumbnail (where Chen lives) are described as semi-abandoned. China tried building these new cities out in the middle of nowhere, assuming people would fill them, but not enough people moved in. Seems like it would be smarter to just build higher where there is already organic demand.

Those are some cheap condos. Seems like the cost of living gap between urban and rural is especially wide in China.

Does Hungary still meet all the requirements for being an EU member? Like, if they weren’t already in, and applied to join today, would they be allowed in? Is it possible to kick them out?
