On the other hand again, we have Tiananmen Square, in which ~3000 students died from the government trying to quell a simple protest. China censors news, media, and the internet, something that the US government does not.
It is true that there are captitalist sectors to bring revenue into China, but they're still subject to censorship and the lack of freedoms that we as Americans have.
