And what leash is that? The US government is the prime example of what happens when corporate money enters politics. There are only two parties and both of them serve the interests of capital. The US doesn't even break up monopolies or cartels anymore.

Companies are the same all over the world, their job is to maximize their value to investors by any means necessary. That's as true in China as it is in the US, so there's no difference.
When it comes to government, neither US nor China has any effective democratic controls on corporations. China has only one party which controls companies with authority, and the US has two parties which both represent the companies themselves.
That's not true. In China private companies exist and can largely operate freely. China is a capitalist country. The only thing that limits corporations in China more than the US is that the companies and billionaires in China are expected to fall in line and not rock the boat when it comes to CCP. But this does not make the corporations an extension of the party, they're still privately owned and operated corporations working within a capitalist market system.
When it comes to government elites injecting themselves to the companies, that's not at all unique to China. The revolving door between government, lobbying groups, think tanks and corporations is "business as usual" in the US and EU too.
China has the power relations between govt<->corporations reversed. In US, the government elite is expected to fall in line with the capital owners, and in China it's the other way around. That's the main difference, not whether the corporations are vaguely "good", "bad", "worse" or "better". That's just simplistic and vague "china bad" rhetoric. The corporations themselves work within the same framework of capitalism, i.e. maximizing value for shareholders.
I will dismiss the personal attacks, as they are not constructive.
