Helios Wrote:China's flawed statistical system had nothing to do with communismOf course, but the flawed statistical system would not have such disasterous results in a free market system. The flawed statistical system only had such disasterous results because the communist government tried to accomplish equal distribution of grain, by stealing grain from the people on villages who supposedly had a lot of grain. In a free market system, the people on villages would be allowed to keep some of the grain they had, so they would not have starved. How do you manage to miss the point completely like that?
