"Is the ticking time bomb." Kinda my read too, but in the case of the Communists, it is all planned. They always feed off of capitalism, in true revolutionary Communism, it has to end. One thing for sure, no matter what it sure is a hell of a mess!

When asked when they might attack the west, their reply was "No possibility of it occurring until they can't steal from you anymore."
"Then a certainty."
Probably not a bad idea to figure this into things.
China stopped being "Communist" when Mao Zedong died. While the CCP pays lip service to the notion of Communism, ideologically and structurally they are not a revolutionary Communist government but a fascistic oligarchic one.
And no, none of China's collapse was "planned", other than it being the result of piss-poor planning by the CCP. Contrary to the myths about Communist states, very little of what actually takes place is in accordance with any long-term plan. Even Mao's nihilistic Cultural Revolution was little more than a ploy by Mao to reclaim his position at the center of the Chinese government after he'd had his wings clipped somewhat because of the epic egomaniacal fustercluck known as the Great Leap Forward
