    are u saying that government intervention in the “free market” = communism?

    I mostly agree with the rest of the points, but I have to comment on this. I’m not implying that china is communist. AFAIK I did not state that in my comments. What I am saying is that government intervention in free markets is antithetical to capitalism. That doesn’t make it communism, socialism, or any other flavor of purism, but still disqualifies the country from being capitalist.

      Sry but this is just bullshit. Nearly every country does that and they are capitalist. Its not antiethical, its needed to stabelise capitalism (even in the USA there are ISO norms, food and drug administration, tax differences for different corporations etc. Pp.)
