Um… Chairman Mao is rolling in his grave now…I think even China admits (*ok, almost admits, because they never admit anything wrong*) the Cultural Revolution was a mistake.
And last time i checked, the disparity between the peasants in China and the ultra wealthy was pretty big….

Yes, but get the timeline straight. The wealth disparity happens AFTER they concluded the cultrual revolution was a mistake and started economical reforms.
Also, I too consider that the Cultural Revolution is a mistake. Just like no matter how outrageous we are toward the bankers, it is better to have a few millionaires than everyone earning minimal wages. But if you think revolution does not create more equal society initially, you’d be wrong. But equal society is not a better society.
