Yes, it's hard to get rich working for low pay: <Let's see how China will be doing when it approaches middle income levels.> It's a metaphysical impossibility.

They have yet to learn that crushing people into submission and emphasizing that the individual doesn't matter and is just a cloned particle of the state is not the way to engender innovative creativity, energy and perspicacity. Self-protection is the dominant psychology in such serfdoms.

Seeing the attitude of ripping people off as a means to "earn" a living I don't think they'll do very well very soon. It's the culture. They don't have a monopoly on that attitude which can be found anywhere, and perhaps as wealth grows an attitude of mutually beneficial identity formation will replace the grasping fraud for zero-sum survival.
