Perhaps slightly unrelated, but do people believe a dictatorship like China can thrive as a first world economy by suppressing people's basic fundamental human rights?
- tempeirn 7y agoYes. I actually do. People have been saying communist can’t survive, but look what China has achieved and continues to achieve. It’s scary but saying dictatorships can’t survive dismisses any possible understanding that it might.
- staticautomatic 7y agoChina is not communist under any political scientific definition.
- AnimalMuppet 7y agoMaybe? It's too early to tell. So far they've survived that way, but they haven't been a first-world economy for very long.
