re Trump called communism the biggest threat since our founding HUH??
Communist China is a prosperous nation now thanks to USA consumers having all there needs made there. And after the Fed Res Act we ended up with a depression and we have social security.

TRUE COMMUNISM MEANS NO PRIVATE PROPERTY . RELIGION IS OUTLAWED . THOSE WHO ARE CONSIDERED A THREAT TO THE PARTY ARE EXTERMINATED. CHILDREN ARE CONSIDERED TO BE OWNED BY THE STATE. FULL SURVEILANCE ALL THE TIME .
100S OF MILLIONS HAVE BEEN MURDERED FOR THEIR RESISTANCE TO COMMUNISM
ARE YOU SAYING YOU WOULD PREFER TO LIVE IN CHINA ? THIS IS THE STUPIDEST POST I HAVE SEEN AT GOLDTENT …ARE YOU KIDDING OR JUST STUPID ?
CHINA ONLY BEGAN TO PROSPER WHEN THEY DUMPED TRUE COMMUNISM…
China is officially communist—but in practice it’s a hybrid system that doesn’t match “pure” communism.
? What makes China “communist”
One-party rule: China is governed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which dominates all political life. [congress.gov], [en.wikipedia.org]
Party controls the state: The CCP “exercises overall leadership over all areas” of the country. [congress.gov]
Official identity: China’s constitution defines it as a socialist state led by the Communist Party. [legalclarity.org]
Ideology: The system is rooted in Marxism?Leninism, adapted as “socialism with Chinese characteristics.” [en.wikipedia.org]
? Politically, China clearly fits the model of a communist (single?party) state.
? Why many say it’s NOT “true communism”
If you go by the classical definition of communism:
No private property
No social classes
State control of all production
Eventually, no state at all
[britannica.com]
China today doesn’t meet that:
Large private sector and billionaires exist
Markets, stock exchanges, and foreign investment are central to the economy [legalclarity.org]
The economy is described as a“socialist market economy” or mixed system [economicactivity.org]
? In reality, China blends state control with capitalist-style markets

EXACTLY RIGHT … China has prospered because it LEFT communism and shifted to Socialism.
America has floundered since leaving Capitalism after Wilson and especially FDR and shifted towards Socialism.
Sweden went full on into Socialism in 1970s and cratered.
Then it took on reforms and recovered.
The REAL question is how far down the road to Socialism can you go without maiming the goose?
The MOST PROSPEROUS nations have smaller federal sectors and sufficient competition.
