China itself just like Chairman Mao is imperfect but I strongly believe the merits out way the wrongs and the real question isn't is China good or bad but by how much the good out ways the bad e.g. is it 60/40, 70/30, 80/20 etc.
Just a tip, "way" sounds the same as "weigh," but "way" refers more to form or path, while "weigh" refers to weight, as in this instance. Fuck english, it's terrible.
Example:
I am on my way to your house.
It's the way I did things.
I weighed the stone, it is 2 kilograms.
Also, feel free to tell me to shut the fuck up, lol.
Ah ok thank you
No problem!
70/30 is the usual split
That's for Chairman Mao and I would largely agree with that however I meant more for the new China as a whole. China continues to be imperfect but as I said I believe the real debate is the semantics of how far the good outweighs the bad as opposed to are they good or bad currently.
A joke on my part, Mao himself used it on Stalin.
