RE: "Communist China will fall apart from the inside due to capitalism."

Could be.. but maybe not the way you seem to be suggesting.

"[China's] factory owners are mostly privileged children of party officials – 90 per cent of China's billionaires are the children of senior cadres – who have a reputation for spending more time in karaoke lounges than boardrooms. They are ill-equipped to act as innovators and entrepreneurs. Experts fear this lack of imagination and flair, combined with the country's widespread corruption and abuse of power, could soon bring about a calamity in the world's fastest-growing economy." The Daily Mail 9 February 2008

Here

If there are reasonably reliable sources to refute the above I'd like to see them. Otherwise, it appears to me that the CCP Central Committee members are major beneficiaries of "capitalism" which, I believe, they call Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

But any "free traders" out there who just had to move production to China because of "government interference" here can be assured that their investments are safe. It will require some government interference, though. But the good kind. The kind "free traders" like.

Washington is warm to a policy of "socialize the risk, privatize the reward." U.S. taxpayers will cover your losses should the Chi-Coms take your property away -- after all you are foreigners, they have your FDI and technology already, and they still have several hundred million citizens to lift out of poverty else there be another revolution.

“Communist China will fall apart from the inside due to capitalism.”

Baloney.

If present trends continue, AMERICA will fall apart from the inside, because we’ve exported our jobs and factories.

China is on the right track.

We are not.

Not capitalism but some state-designed thing that looks a lot like capitalism but isn't.
