Sure, in the sense that they also have a “democracy” where only one party is allowed. If you believe their propaganda, I have a bridge to sell you. The real reason things are so cheap in China is that it has spent the last 50 years building its productive capacity You mean because western capitalists have spent the last 50 years building its productive capacity. Do you really think they’re going to let the people have any control of that? ensuring the entire economy works to enrich a few people at the cost of everyone else. And China copied that and took it to the extreme. Why do you believe their propaganda so easily? Are you Chinese?
