I don’t support authoritarianism, regardless of how close to communism it is. But at least China invests in its people.

I really wish they didn’t do mass surveillance and have political prisoners. And all that other bad stuff. Being a homosexual is illegal and not socially acceptable (per a lesbian from China I was in grad school with who told me this).

But you gott a give China credit for investing in their people.

The thing is, China is still capitalist.

It’s just regulated a bit better and the government officials are more educated and see that innovation and investment will make them more wealthy in the long run.

I guess their system is a bit of a hybrid. Capitalism and socialism.

But it’s not full communism no matter what they say. The workers don’t own the companies.
