    I talked to a native Chinese woman who said that China is not a communist country.

    … while her family worked for a state owned corporation, retired at 55, has amazing medical insurance, and is receiving a pension three times their salary.

    She also claimed that there’s a lot of competition for jobs in state owned companies because they pay a lot more, have more stable employment, and better benefits than privately owned companies.

    … while saying that China is successful because they transitioned to a free market economy with minimal gov intervention.

    Like… yes, it’s important to get others opinions. But… also understand that the people you ask… may not have the full picture.

      Of course they might not, that is only natural
