Ah, but what does it take to be a successful Chinese capitalist? Membership (or family membership) in the top cadres of the communist party.If the party allows you and your family to become wealthy, you get all the regulatory clearance, capital, workforce arrangements you need. Otherwise, good luck with that. Don't forget that as a country with a billion people, there are millions in the higher levels of the communist party...
Might start to give US citizens a different view on cheap China goods if it is true that to make something there you have to pay to play in the official Communist party. That’s an element you would not see with goods made in other countries, even most banana republic countries.
