  1. "Anyone with a passport can leave". Most people can leave, but some people are prevented from leaving, including many Uyghurs, Tibetans, some people who have criticized the Party, some people involved in a business dispute, ect. People active in the PLA are prevented by law from leaving the country, people in leadership positions in government must have prior permission to leave. All these limitations apply even if you're just going on vacation to Thailand, or a shopping trip to HK. However, most people don't belong to any of the above groups, so they can all leave.

  2. You seem to be confusing the words 'free' and 'rich'. You can be free and poor, rich and unfree,

  3.  @thinkingaloud5379  " Show evidence or shut up". YouTube doesn't allow outside links, but you can Google the following terms: "Uyghurs can't get passports" "Tibetans can't get passports" As for PLA soldiers, I have been told by PLA soldiers right here in China.
