Give me a break... No one needs party membership to do anything in private sectors... Why the hell people still think about Chinese live like party farmed ani

  I think you misunderstood me here, I was trying to emphasize how big and varied the party's interests are. People often frame it like a singleminded machine. I don't live there but I've heard a lot of people say that party membership is useful, not necessary mind you, for lots of business endeavors. There's a whole other conversation about the differences in representation between the two countries, and I think China's system has some points in it's favor as far as "does this government act on behalf of it's people", but I was just trying to phrase things in a way that would get through to the typical HN reader.

    Apologize, it was not come to me in that way.

      Probably bad writing on my part too, there's 2 sides to every misunderstanding :)
