I was in China in 1988 and recall a doctor being so keen to leave he asked me if I had a sister, before describing how much he earned compared with a factory worker - I don't recall the amounts but it was not enough/we need some economic inequality so folks have the incentive of an economic ladder to climb and those who do more critical work have a few more creature comforts; but, talk about one extreme to another, China, it seems, now needs a socialist revolution to get rid of the Chinese Capitalist Party and all its billionaires!
