The Chinese Socialism Jessica Chen

This book briefly describes the life, both material and spiritual, under the Chinese socialism, in a regular person's eyes. Brainwashed by the doctrine of 'Poor is glory, rich is shameful', people lived in man-made poverty and were proud of being poor. Under the socialism, there was no law to protect people. A political movement could easily take away the life of the Chairman of the State (equal to President of a country); the whole nation held their tongues. Words that were considered to be against the great leader Mao could invite trouble of death sentence and immediate execution. Having lived in USA for over fifteen years, as a regular person, the writer found, in the capitalism, the traces of good deeds that supposed to happen in the socialism. It is a Chinese-English dual language book.
