I lived in China for 3 years. I felt more free there than in the US, which is where I'm from. Of course there's nuance... There's no denying the government has all the power and they display that from time to time. But in the US, its more like a constant grip - not impressive displays, but constant tightening grip. Here, we're harassed over everything. Anything you can imagine being harassed about, we're being harassed, either by government or by social groups trying to exert government level power. And we can't afford anything, and jobs are scarce and getting scarcer.

So... China's a one party commie empire, and we're a two fake parties banker empire... And I'm an anarcho capitalist... But I know I had more freedom in China.
