What I actually said is that the standard of living is going up in China while it’s not going up in capitalist countries. If China was capitalist then you’d expect the same thing to happen as it does everywhere else where there is capitalism. China would look something like India right now.
Numbeo is ranking India at #56, China at #65 for quality of life index.
China is notable for having a recent rapid increase. It’s easier to have a big delta number, when your starting number is so low.
Once you show me somebody doing it better than China then we’ll talk.
According to Numbeo there are still 64 counties doing better on the quality of life index than China.
And nobody is expecting them to voluntarily give up wealth, taking the wealth away and nationalizing things is the job of the government. Of course, you refuse to accept the fact that working class holds power in China and that’s what your fallacious view of China is premised on.
Working class holds what power? Tencent and Alibaba aren’t owned by its workers. Why would the government ever decide to give up its joint wealth and power with the billionaire class? What could the workers possibly do to hold them accountable?
