The trouble with Maoism which the human bear seems to be leaning toward is that it overlooked the fact that peepur will not give of their best if they aren't rewarded for it.
If I use my head to think and work more and better, I still get the same food rations as the chap who's lazy, then I'd rather switch off.
There's no concept of meritocracy that rewards a person based on his performance and merits. Rather it's taking from everyone according to his ability and giving to everyone according to his needs. China offered the world the best empirical evidence that this way of galvanizing human resources and allocating the country's wealth, while lofty, was wrong from the word go, and only led to an equality of the wrong type, where everyone was equally poor.
Deng did the right thing to follow Singapore's model with Chinese characteristics. China's growth is the same as ours seen through a powerful magnifying glass.
As long as the CCP is benevolent, it's good for China.. If the human bear truly loves his country and his peepur, the country is in good hands though some may argue that the more relevant question to ask is: Does he have the ability to govern the country?
While the Chinese system under Mao failed, it was China's blessing that Deng didn't learn from Malaysia.
The ketuanan melayu policy which forced Han Malaysians to earn a living through the sweat of their brow while giving endless help and money and special privileges to the Malays there turned the Malay Malaysians into lazy (censored).. Even Mahatail admitted it. The Malays there are LAZY.
This is why despite a big headstart, KL is not even half as developed as any of China's second tier city today.
