You know, for a "communist" country, they seem to be quite good at capitalism - https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2017/03/worlds-biggest-economies-in-2017/
And I'm sure you're aware just how much they've bailed out both the US and the EU in the past?
sure they are more capitalist than most western countries today, but, that doesn't mean they are leading the way with regulations to protect people... if they were serious about regulations to protect workers and consumers we would see more safety regulations in the work place and in product production - quality control, counterfeiting,... hazardous materials used in the production of products... it literally took 1000's of dead babies for them to even do anything about the milk scandal... and the beef scandal... I have gotten fake hershey chocolate syrup here (which could very well be poisonous).. they have fake eggs, fake rice, fake M&M's .... or what about working conditions of workers? being overworked until death? maybe some regulations in working conditions are far more needed than a tiny ICO market being regulated... if they wanted to protect people there are a million places that are more important than ICO's..
but i guess the regulations in food and the work place are not as important to you or others outside of china... your iphone might cost more... people dont really care about other people in this world... its evident with how people talk about china.
Well, if you want to talk about how countries treat their citizens, then you can include the US in that. What about your rising number of homeless? Or the veterans returning home to be treated like dirt? Your healthcare fiasco is making headlines worldwide. And your university tuition fees are a joke. Never mind all the people working in minimum wage jobs. As for food regulations, I suppose US food is so healthy that is why you have a massive (no pun intended) obesity problem? Because eating junk food is so healthy for you. And before you talk about "fake eggs", perhaps remember where Montsanto operates and the US government's attempts to give them a global footing. Because sure, genetically modified food is perfectly safe, right? Checked the bee population lately?
I didn't notice the US doing much about the oil spills in the Gulf of Mexico, or about the toxic fumes now spreading over Texas. Who was the only country that refused to sign the UN treaty on climate change?
Cross the pond to the UK and you again have rising homelessness and unemployment. Zero-hour contracts, a good example of capitalism right there - so tell me how the UK government cares for it's people? I suppose it cares so much that it lets its people eat out of food banks and cuts disability payments to the sick, leaving mentally ill people to starve to death. This is why there are countless charities and benefit events trying to offset the damage caused by the government.
Look at the EU as a whole. Italy, Spain, Greece, Ireland and others paying back "austerity" payments for the last ten years thanks to the greed of bankers. Another great example of capitalism in action. Did Merkel care when Greeks were forced out of their homes and were living in cars on the street? Or when families were being evicted in Spain? No, I did not see any caring or compassion then.
Every country has its problems, nobody said otherwise. And every country has it's share of scandals. But it is a little too easy to point the finger at other countries. Calling a nation "the communists" reeks of 1950's McCarthy-era ignorance. Do they refer to you as "the capitalists" (sic) ? I doubt it somehow.
im not american, why did you assume i was? you realize that i live in china right?? i didnt say china was communist,... id say your country is more socialist than china today, no matter where in the world you live... and i dont even care where you live lol... fact remains. .. if they wanted to protect people, they have and have had a million better ways to do that for the past decade and have not. the regulations are not about protecting people, its about controlling money - the exact opposite of what most of us want (crypto enthusiasts)
the country isn't communist but the government is! so much so they've jumped in bed with tory britain and promised to build them a nuclear power plant!
