      The nefarious Chinese are tricking people into supporting them by checks notes improving their material conditions.

      Thank God I live in America where I’ll never have to worry about the government doing that.

      Maybe the US should start “bribing” with infrastructure projects then, I thought they were all about their soft power or whatever

        You know the US is upstanding because it won’t even bribe its own citizens by giving them anything that would improve their lives no matter how hard they vote. True democracy!
