I also find it hilarious that communists will preach socialism to those who reside in capitalist countries, completely neglecting that converting to Stalin or China type socialism will make the average American poorer because at least 60% of Americans actually own their own property, the land is not leased.

  1. How do you not understand the difference between private property and personal property?
  2. 93% of Chinese people own their own homes, vs 66% of Americans.

This has gotten ridiculous. You’ve shown over and over that don’t know anything about anything, but you keep on going anyway.

And you’ve shown time and time again that you choose to misrepresent things. No one owns anything in China lol, the government leases the land.

That is true for private property, meaning land for resource extraction and for situating factories & offices, not for personal property, meaning homes to live in.

Why do insist on being confidently incorrect over and over?

Okay, here’s someone else then, basically there’s no ownership on land by anyone in China.

The 90% figure also excludes rural residents, so it’s probably inflated.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
