You were a travelor, and didn't live there. You are comparing your own experience as an analyst in Banking, one of the most brutal industry for work.

Sure, and I'm sure you will find ardent supporters of North Korea regime, Hitler Germany, and Mao's regime.

It's not a uniquely Western trend to want freedom, voting rights, and justice. It's also not uniquely Western to see the regime party members get super rich and get angry.

So wouldn't the study just need to compare athelete's children with a rocket scientist's children?

Poor Chinese Millennials. They are frustrated their country turned dictatorship. They are constantly monitored by the big brother, social credit score, public cameras that have facial recognition. Their words censored by wechat, and the great firewall. If they say something wrong, they will be watched and put on no travel list. There's no moving up the ladder; they're stuck trying to buy a $500k house with a meager $1000/month income. There's no other good investment choices. They see tuhaos (country bumpkin milllionnaires) drive maseratis around. They see CEOs being disappeared by the government with each passing day, which tells them if they're ever successful, that's the fate that awaits them. Their only hope is to escape to Australia or Canada. But in the meantime they have to endure horrific pollution and rising inflation.
Can someone put up a link for comparing the costs of azure, aws, and google cloud? it seems like there are some big efforts underway to migrate away from AWS.
