Ch. 6- Meyer states, "We have every right to make the same mistakes that America made" (p. 83). In the three cities we visited in Manchuria, I felt that all we very similar in that there was vast urban sprawl and numerous high rise buildings. I have traveled to many different US cities, and the closest comparison in the look and feel of those cities I can make would be to NYC, based on the amount of people and buildings within the four mainland cities we visited. So for me, China has in some ways surpassed the growth of US. For me, they are making "mistakes" that America has not yet made because our population is lower than China's and we have not had to deal with the problems or advantages of that issue.
