I don’t get that either. Is chairman Mao turning in his grave at the capitalistic reforms implemented in China in recent years?? By definition, in a totalitarian communist system, at least still officially communist, how can there be so many wealthy Chinese?

And why does their totalitarian government allow them to buy real estate outside the country???

I think the Chinese have gone from Communism to something uniquely Chinese.

When Mao died in 1976 ex-”capitalist roader” Deng Xiapeng (who was imprisoned during Mao’s reign for his free market admonitions) took over and threw out most of the communist economic policies. China hasn’t been communist since about 1979 when Deng began the reforms. China is now simply an authoritarian country.
