YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAre the United States or CCP-led China more "socialist" or "communist" today? By the numbers on social spending, healthcare, welfare, pensions, and safety nets, the answer might shock you. Malcolm and Simone Collins break down the data: America spends 2-3x more as a percentage of GDP on public support systems, delivers luxury-level care to the poor via Medicaid (private hospitals, no premiums for many), offers free school meals and extensive family benefits, and provides Social Security that aims to replace a significant portion of earnings—while China’s Dibao is minimal, healthcare often requires upfront payments + bribes ("red packets"), pensions are tiny, and there's no assumption of permanent homelessness support.
They also compare outcomes (US cancer survival rates beat the UK's NHS), discuss why leftists like Hasan Piker still praise China, and explore the unsustainability of America's middle-class-subsidized luxury welfare state. Expect spicy takes on hypocrisy, cultural incentives, and why America functionally delivers more "socialism" than the self-proclaimed communist powerhouse.
