  20. The number of factories leaving China and Hong Kong has been rising, partly due to state ownership and government influence over business operations. Carrie Lam and John Lee, Hong Kong’s chief executive and other government leaders, oversee a growing number of abandoned factories. Skilled Chinese workers have voiced frustrations about these leaders’ business decisions, noting that those in charge may lack hands-on experience with the equipment, and even basic operations can be a challenge. This shows that factory ownership doesn’t necessarily require a degree, though practical know-how is essential. To understand this issue, it’s useful to consider the principles of capitalism and communism, which shape economic systems differently: Capitalism is an economic system based on private ownership and free markets. Businesses and resources are primarily owned by individuals or corporations, not the government. People have the freedom to make profits, innovate, and compete in the market. Decisions about production and pricing are driven by supply and demand, and success is often measured by profitability. Communism, on the other hand, promotes collective ownership and aims for an economy where resources and production are publicly owned. In this system, the government typically controls key industries and distribution to ensure equality. Business decisions are centralized, and profits are ideally shared among the population, rather than concentrated in private hands. In this case, Hong Kong’s factory closures highlight some of these differences: under a more capitalist approach, factories might remain privately run and operate based on market needs. However, under a state-controlled model, the government has significant influence over these operations, which can lead to difficulties if leadership lacks technical or operational experience.

  61. What's so strange about communism? Capitalism and Communism don't mean the same thing. Communism is not a free market. Doesn't allowed competition. State control and press control. No freedom of expression, speech, and religion. Food that you eat is heavily monitor by government; Credit System. you can't pick anything you want from supermarket counter. They choose food for you to eat. It's also classless warfare system similar Cuba. Communist banks have to be longer waiting line. Hospital takes longer lines. You can't have lot of kids in China. There' no such thing is two child policy in china. Mao never said two. No scholarship for two or more children. one child you get free scholarships. The supply is less. The school studies is very heavy and strict , longer hour studying , more homework than capitalism. China leader doesn't allowed kids pay video game longer. Forces kids to stay more time studies without entertainment. China has GAOKAO hardest exam in the world. Only very few kids could get into US colleges. Capitalism is free market. Allows competition. non state own. Free Press Limited. Freedom speech is allowed and religion allowed. Food that you eat is not monitor by government. no credit system. You can pick any food you want from supermarket counter without government intervention. Capitalist bank is empty without need to wait a line. Hospital take les less lines. you can have more children as you want without government intervention. Kids allowed to have activities after school. They can play video game as many hours they want.
