The willingness to kill billionaires accounts for the horror inspired by Red China. If they were only killing street people or the unemployed, they'd be used as a case study in best practice at the Harvard Business School.
The injustices of China are real, I have no doubt about that, but what is impressive is the resolve and human excellence (especially in education). China is very tough, but the people running things are seriously intelligent. I respect that. It is a contrast with the West.
Everyone can be wrong in a situation. It's like that Hitler or Stalin argument. Which is a lesser evil depends very much on circumstance. The correct answer to that question is always 'neither is acceptable.' That's part of why the U.S. is so screwed up now, because both parties try to demonize the other because they think it makes them look like the good guy, but in reality they both just suck.
Yet China has eliminated "extreme poverty" (or so they claim, but it has been backed up by other sources.)
