It’s impressive how competent Chinese governance has been overall. Their plans are largely met because they govern with all these goals in mind. It makes me wonder if western political systems should learn something from China.
This is what we want from the government - fuck off, and not get in the way. Sure, it has to tax us in order to keep the serfs from revolting, we understand this danger so are willing to chip in, but that's about it.
Like what? We're not copying the communist planned economy, nor will we ever facilitate a total autocracy. The West will never out-China the Chinese.
