Some resources for a lot of the people below claiming that China is just like any other capitalist country.
Is China State Capitalist?

I actually agree that the PRC is still presocialist but at least I didn't spit out your useless 'lol fuk u' reply.
Presocialist as in the economy isn't yet at public ownership and planning levels to be considered fully Socialist, or preparing to transition to Communism? I know you've read a lot more than I have so I'm curious what you mean here. I'm still a "baby ML."
As far as I know, capital, the law of value, and generalized commodity production remain phenomenal in the PRC. Their prevalence does seem to be diminishing, though, which is one reason why I think that equating the PRC with something like Imperial America is wrong.
I agree largely, I suppose I just use the term "Socialist" because I believe the Public Sector to be primary and the trends to be towards collectivization. The "stages" of Socialism model common among Chinese Marxists at work.
