Nailed it. Its curious that people mix up governments and market so readily. As if the US is a free market system and the Communist Chinese system is purely command and control. At the bottom, the a Chinese citizen could appear to have more freedom than a poor person in the US. 1500 hours of "school" to braid hair for a living in the US. This thing is nothing but gatekeepers, even if the gatekeeper isnt the state.
