In China there are millions of people who are poor and don't have access to healthcare. I had open heart surgery in June 2021, in one of the top hospitals in this country. I'm not rich, I had to become really poor to qualify for Medicaid in my state, but at least I had Medicaid. I'm now recovering financially, and physically, but the impoverished Chinese have less access to healthcare than we do here in America. Sure you may not be able to pay the deductible to your private health insurance, but you can still, in many states, qualify for Medicaid if your income is below a certain level. The Chinese don't have that, and they're "communist"? No they're not. Americans have more access to an education, through their local community colleges. You can get plenty of US government financial aid, with the FAFSA, Pell Grants, the Chinese don't have that. You have to go through a rigorous vetting process to see if you're "worthy" of receiving a university education and then and only then, maybe, you will get a higher education, paid for by the state.
America and Western Europe, in many ways, are more socialist and compassionate, towards their citizens than China is towards its own people. I'm against imperialism, that's when our politicians serve the vested interests of corporations at the expense of human beings (Americans, and people in other countries).
