    I’m talking about mercantilism. China just happens to be the biggest country that does it. Just like the US is the biggest one doing capitalism. Communism isn’t really even on the board so not sure why people like you keep bringing it up.

        But injecting it into a discussion specifically about capitalism vs communism?

        A hugely ironic comment from the person who injected talk about communism into a discussion of capitalism.

        Because in the modern world it’s really a competition between capitalism and mercantilism, and self congratulating the capitalist nations on beating communism seems like masturbation to me.
