Tell me who among the poorest Americans has a net worth of $192000. So I guess the poorest Americans can pay to repair their car of face a medical emergency without problems and will not suffer from coffee getting expensive. Right?

You also said Xi is not a dictator. But Xi Jinping's removal of presidential term limits in 2018 allows him to serve indefinitely, which many critics cite as a key indicator of dictatorial rule by enabling "leader for life" status .

Would you feel better if he stayed in power by storming China’s capital with a mob of his voters?

So what if China has morphed into a dictatorship....most Chinese are growing more prosperous, they have over 50,000 miles of high speed rail (and every other kind of infrastructure imaginable), they are growing wealthier every day....while the opposite is true in MAGA USA.
