Good thing we (the US) lost the war, or this lady would probably have her own team of lobbyists running their country.

    That’s actually pretty awesome IMO.

    Cue ‘that guy’ telling me how bad Vietnam is.

      Vietnam is actually really good, as far as middle-income countries without functional democracy go.

      But a high proportion of the workforce engaged in agriculture is not a good thing. Though I don’t think that 70% number is correct regardless. I think it’s considerably lower (which is better for Vietnam).

        Everyone should at least have a garden of their own and the path to that is in home ownership being available to everyone.
