Re: "Just as China remains a semi- totalitarian political regime, however "marketized" its economy."

>>> I'd argue that there is little 'Communist' about the present day Chinese leadership these days... other than the name and stale slogans.

>>> They are still profoundly totalitarian... but their support of market mechanisms + totalitarianism would more properly classify them as "fascists".

>>> Once they finish privatizing their state-owned industries (remember: even Hitler presided over a partially state-owned infrastructure), what will be left is fascism, not communism.
