Then you really haven't looked. Chinese working people have paid vacation and sick leave, low-cost public housing in abundance with nearly 90% of the population owning a primary residence, and retirement in the 50s for women and 60s for men. Per-capita debt is about 10% of the American population. The adult literacy rate is 98%, 20-pts higher than their American peers. Life expectancy is eclipsing the US, as theirs rises and ours falls. Instances of suicide are much lower. Incarceration rates are lower. Yadda yadda yadda.
Now compare the Chinese working class to folks living in The Philippines or Pakistan or South Africa or Brazil. Nevermind Egypt or Russia or Qatar or - god forbid - Haiti or Palestine. It's not even close.

Essential China Leave Policy Requirements
Annual Leave: 5-15 days based on years of service (5 days for 1-10 years, 10 days for 10-20 years, 15 days for 20+ years)
Sick Leave: 3-24 months depending on service length and local regulations
Maternity Leave: Minimum 98 days nationally, extended to 128-190 days by provincial regulations
Public Holidays: 7 statutory holidays with additional adjusted days totaling 11-16 non-working days annually
Critical Compliance: Provincial and municipal variations significantly impact leave entitlements
Edit:
Somethin ain't addin up
That's a great step you're making towards the realization that you've been lied to for decades about how great the US (and a bench of other western countries) are really.
Idk life is pretty sweet for me and it started out pretty shitty.
Well, YMMV
Sounds like you don't know how to use a calculator.
