It's the strategic advantage of a one-party regime. Unless they get side-tracked by the looting of their own country like happened to Russia under Putin and his cronies, the Chinese can quickly iterate on their mistakes, correct them and move forward. The CCP's complete disregard for human rights, environmental issues, copy rights and international law, accelerates this progress even further. It is pretty unbelievable where China is today from just 20 years ago in terms of their geopolitical influence, not just as a manufacturing and trading giant shipping furniture and apparel. Meanwhile in the US our incompetent members of Congress routinely get deadlocked on inconsequential issues letting our adversaries sprint through an open field where it is now very difficult if not impossible to tackle them. If the CCP says they are preparing for war it is because they are ready for it Unlike Russia, they are always two or three steps ahead of what they make us believe.
