Oh this is hilarious. China is the most-capitalist of any country outside the US. An entire class of low paid factory workers prop up the billionaire elite class while they live in their mansions. Meanwhile social services and liberties fall far behind what non-US Western nations offer.
Guy has never been to China obviously. Private wealth is rampant. Billionaires everywhere. And everything is for sale. Extremely materialist “brand name” conscious society.
“Capitalism is when people own things” is Milton Friedman brain.
China is the most successful instance of decolonization in human history. China’s legal policy of domestic ownership is as revolutionary as any Soviet model imposed under Lenin.
The maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry. Domestic ownership remains the cornerstone of Chinese economic policy and guarantees a quality of life not seen anywhere in the world.

Americans will complain that China is stealing they’re jobs, then dismiss high paid industrial positions in blue collar industry. It’s fucking crazy.
You know what the retirement age is in China right now? 63! And that’s for able bodied men in white collar jobs. Blue collar working women earn their pensions at 55.
We’ve got people in Western countries working into their fucking 80s, because they can’t afford rent otherwise.
That’s why China has billionaires and America has trillionaires.
