Ironic, Western politicians thought opening up to trade with China would lead to it adopting a Western model of government. Instead it's lead to the USA adopting the Chinese one.

We even have no assurance of keeping private property via civil asset forfeiture!

Private ownership was the adults main point of pride to distinguish from the Chinese when I was growing up.

And now the Chinese private property frameworks are closer to ours and ours are closer to theirs.
