A little correction. China isn't Communist, only by name the government calls itself. China is arguably even more capitalist than the US, and China themselves describe it as 'Socialism with Chinese characteristics'. Essentially, the government owns all the big important stuff. All banks, all energy, all transport and so on.

The private companies not owned by the government have to bow down to every command regardless, follow every rule. So it's not how we traditionally understand these classes.

Communism is putting ownership in the hands of the people. This is quite the opposiite. One could argue that everything is ini the hands of 11-12 people at the top.

It's more about being able to control and micromanage than dividing things in any class-specific way.
