WTF? Do you think China has become more or less capitalist over the last 40 years, while those 500 million Chinese people escaped poverty? Less communism = less poverty.

The Chinese have less poverty because they have less Capitalism. They only have Capitalism in a few cities while the rest is Socialist. So less Capitalism = Less Poverty

You seriously think that China has become MORE communist since Mao died and that's why there's less poverty?

No, it's actually less Communist since Mao died but it's more than most countries. It's in the Capitalist cites where people continue to be impoverished.

You must be trolling. If you knew anything about China, you'd know that the rural population is poorest and city dwellers have the highest incomes and highest standard of living.

Life in China's rural communities is no more glamorous or comfortable

I have traveled to 2nd 3rd tier cities in China. Foxconn is a small segment of the industry and its unfortunate. That has more to do with poor management of a small sector.

Actually China is so big, you'd have to travel to rural areas and see. In Western Region like Yunnan and Guizhou, people live w better food quality, fresh water, better than SH, BJ etc
