I think it is interesting that Clay stated that the United States and China are the 2 most economically divided countries in the world. While I was in China, I tried to understand and identify any remanence of communist ideologies but it was hard for me to see the differences from the U.S. I saw poverty as well as wealth there in all three of the cities I visited. One of the nights, I went to a street where the locals eat, and the image that comes to my mind when I think about this place is people begging on the street and a lady cleaning the restaurant dishes in buckets on the street, next to a BMW with flashy lights. I am wondering how what people and the government identify as noteworthy markers of communism in China, considering that these two nations with opposing economic ideologies have the same outcomes.
