    That has improved and continues to improve over the last several decades, and the wealth disparity is a whole order of magnitude less than the U.S.

    Billionaires in China are rich in name only. The only things they can get with money are a slightly fancier car and house, they aren’t able to buy elections.

      The wealth disparity has been roughly the same for the last 20 years…

      China is an authoritarian one party state. There are not really elections to buy. And you would be daft to think a Chinese billionaire can only buy a slightly better house.

        Not true.

        Author-onion-tar-elon-izuhm is a buzz phrase. All politics is authoritarian.

        Calling China a authoritarian one-party state is a non-insult. Its like calling a scientist intelligent and rational.

        China allows multiple parties and factions. The difference is that only socialism is allowed as the baseline.
