    Power and wealth control governments … every government.

    Once humanity figures out how to provide more equitable power and wealth to every person everywhere, then we might be able to evolve beyond jungle rules.

    In the meantime, it doesn’t matter what you want to call it … communism, socialism, capitalism, liberalism, whatever … as long as we allow unlimited wealth and power to flow to small groups of people, any system will always end up with the same results.

      Inequality absolutely needs to be eliminated to have a truly equitable society. That said though, it’s pretty clear that China does have a dictatorship of the proletariat in place. If it didn’t then same things we see happening in capitalist societies would be happening there as well.

          Honestly I’m not the biggest fan of everything in China but these are the types of problems the Chinese government seems to try to figure out a lot more than our governments do.
