I think that my post is directly adresses the points you raised but you have to be open minded to else's talk. I don't want to get into long debates because my english are not strong and will take time and space. PS. Soviet tactic did work during Stalin's era, USSR became nuclear global super power in 30 years. Managed to master technologies that PRC is struggling even nowdays to master. Managed to be the counterweight of Western Imperialism for decades, managed to inspire the Chinese people to seek their own dignity and prosperity.All I'm saying is that China's system works and traditional socialism does not. Whatever has to be done to make it work for China, China has done it and it clearly did not result in a system that pays everyone equally regardless of qualifications and contributions as Kaeshmiri suggests. I have no philosophical attachments except that China needs to do whatever it can to be the strongest nation.
The economic growth during Mao's rule was highly unstable, sometimes growing by 20% and sometimes dropping by 16%. It is not healthy growth with strong momentum. Most of his economic policies, especially calling for the melting of existing items to make iron, did not make sense. He was known to be an excellent general but a poor economist.
Once again, the Soviet tactic did not work while the Chinese one did in the long run. The result is clear and results always trump ideology.
I don't care about Marx; he might have meant well but his ideology doesn't work anywhere in the world. China borrowed some things from him but China did not actually follow him or the country would be ruined like every other one that did. China created its own system; it was not meant to spread philosophy or honor any man's ideals. China's system was designed to make China succeed and succeed it did.
I wish for the CCP to use any way it can to bring China to the top of the world. To me, the main difference between the KMT and CCP is that the KMT were spineless and wanted to bow to the West and subject China to a future like that of Japan's for momentary comfort while the CCP dared to dream that China can rise on its own power and stand to eclipse all else. The CCP realized that this dream is possible and worth suffering for. That's my admiration for them as well as their flexibility in policy to create their own system rather than pick amongst the options presented to them. At the core, Chinese strength is all that matters; the economical politics used to achieve it are secondary/tertiary details compared to the core. Black cat or white cat, if it catches the mouse, it's a good cat.
In the end, your post doesn't address the points I raised, which describe why it doesn't work to strip wealth from corporation owners to give overwhelmingly high pay to those who perform menial tasks. Never sacrifice success for loyalty to ideology; this rigidity is a mistake made by defeated civilizations.
*did you know about Chinese Soviet Republic?
