It is probably more than a decade ahead because it is one of the few countries on earth that's actually tried to solve the land problem.

As it stands right now, most people are born into poverty. Why? Because they are born into this world, that is already owned by the past generation and they have no place on this planet. They aren't just humans with no possessions to their name, no, it is far worse, they are people who don't even have the right to exist on this planet, people who have been deprived of the very things that should belong to them.

A person born into land poverty has no means to help themselves, it is illegal for them to help themselves until they have bribed a previous land owner with years of their time. Imagine being born into this planet with an obligation to work 15 years to acquire land. Being born is no longer a blessing. Everyone who was born must justify their existence in front of the land owners.
