Thread: An interesting article

BBC News - China debate over US envoy's coffee run
I found the Chinese interest in some of our politicians quite interesting. They found it "beyond belief" that our diplomat to China would carry his own bags or that Biden would eat at a family owned restaurant.

"If American officials are so frugal, why can't the government control spending and why do they borrow so much?" one netizen asked.

That is a really interesting article.

It sheds some light on how different cultures operate....

Imagine if every one of our officials, even down to small town mayors all had chauffeurs and servants?

I am glad we don't spend tax dollars serving them too much ... I know we do, but apparently we are not coddling them so much as other countries.

Fixed that up for you.
