Looks like it's v1.2.3, released in 2014, so I'm guessing this client won't work? Might want to remove that link! :)
Does this also take into account wage increases of the top 10%? If so, that article would be wildly misleading.
The wealthy/elite classes are doing absolutely fantastic under Trump though, and are getting tax cuts and wage increases. Those don't represent America, though.
Edit: Simple Google search shows my thoughts to be true [1]. Wages aren't rising quicker than inflation/cost of living, so saying wages are increasing or are "up" is a bit inaccurate.

Wrong. Try speaking out against the US government in any meaningful way and you'll be murdered by it. Dissent is not welcome here and you will be punished for it.

>A social credit score which can limit my ability to associate with certain people, get good employment, good housing, and unrestricted travel.
How is this different than our credit score system and 80% of people living paycheck to paycheck? Employers check it, housing checks it, travel is about to implement face scanning. Not seeing a huge difference here. There aren't even many good jobs (https://amp.usatoday.com/amp/1809629002If). If we don't fully have it yet, we sure as shit will soon.
Everything we do is tracked, watched, listened to, recorded. Look up and view all of the easily hackable cameras loaded with back doors literally everywhere. It's really not much different than what we're told about China. Talking in work Slack I often get "move to Signal" because our workplaces are authoritatian and strip you of your rights when you walk in the door.
Are there even any examples so far of China's social credit having any effect on anyone?
I would be surprised if they didn't have nearly the same freedoms we have in USA, if not more in some ways. A lot of their culture is based in confucianism as well, which makes their society different than USA.
We have an oppressive system with humanitarian issues, that's unapologetically Orwellian, that cheats and lies. Our workplaces are authoritatian. I don't see us as too much different, just the USA really doesn't want to lose their #1 economic superpower status, so we're inundated with low quality propaganda. We're both capitalistic systems, China is not economically communist or the people would own the means of production.

Are they capitalistic or economies though? Right wing systems that value privitization? Countries that are cutting emissions in extremely significant manners (relative to their countries, they can't control the world), and putting out well reachable net-zero emissions goals, are the furthest left wing countries in the world at the moment that have checks on Capitalism.
No, therefore China is not a communist state. It is one in name only. Its economy is extremely capitalistic.
More likely due to capital. It's always capital. We're going to kill all life for capital.
We'll need to send another Sagan vinyl up to warn about the dangers of Capitalism among societies.
IPCC claims we need to expand beyond capitalism to solve this [1].

Do I also click the poles?
"Click the traffic lights"
Do I also click the poles they're attached to?
"Click the store fronts"
If it doesn't have writing on it but it looks like it might be a store do I click it?
"Click all cars"
Do I also include trucks, busses, or just cars?
I miss old captchas.
The internet makes China out to be this place where everyone is just always working, have almost no rights anymore, constantly surveiled so they can't have fun or enjoyment, just NPC's making womens underwear for 2 cents an hour.
I think it's just projection from the failures of their own country to be honest.
It's just the truth. A lot of people/governments/entities want him dead. It wasn't meant to incite any kind of violence, just pointing out that he's a major target.
I tried ordering angled cutting pliers for cutting excess legs off of my PCB's when soldering, and other than Hakko which was an add-on item so I couldn't buy it unless I wanted 3 of them, most other brands were cheap Chinese trash.
I've had 34/35 items arrive from Aliexpress in the last month from Cambodia, China, and Russia. One was mis-delivered by USPS in USA. Amazon can't deliver correctly to the Whole Foods 1/4 mile from their HQ.
