    China is a capitalist country

    They focus their government money on creating jobs and control. People will well paying jobs and money for fun stuff are less likely to start a civil war

    Rather than the US where the focus is making themselves richer and funding the military

    • Funding the military so they can quash any rebellions from people having nothing left to lose deciding to rise up. Did you know that the founding fathers intended for there to be no standing army for this very reason? I just learned this the other day.
