It’s very communist. They have just learned that controlled capitalism will make the leaders richer.
Check out their one child “program”. Check out the killing of political prisoners for organ transplants. Get a heart there for $250,000.

Can't say I share your view. Now they have the economic and industrial werewithal not only to crack down on their own populace but to bully and badger the international community more effectively.
Selling us the rope with which they will hang us... And way too many willing to look the other way in the name of 'capitalism'. Sick.
