Boy, are you lost! China is Communist in name only. The US is a Democracy in name only. Today, China is a Meritocratic Socialist-Capitalist state, the US is a Represenatative Democratic Socialist-Capitalist state. The only difference is, in how their political systems manage these systems. China uses meritocracy, the US uses representative Democracy. Are we still with it?

男孩，你搞錯了! 中國只是表面的共產主義國家。 美國也只是名義上的民主。 今天，中國是一個精英社會資本主義國家，美國是一個代議制的民主社會資本主義國家。 唯一的區別在於，他們的政治系統如何管理這些系統。 中國任人唯賢，美國使用代議制民主，美國有跟上嗎？

China operates like an American corporation, management is selected base on merit and in most cases, by the next level in the management chain. The President is chosen by the Board of Directors. China works in a very similar fashion, hence the term meritocratic. Are American companies Communist?

中國國家的運營方式與美國公司類似，管理層的選擇基於積效，在大多數情況下，管理層的下一級別。 國家主席由董事會選出。 中國的工作方式非常相似，因此稱之為精英。 美國公司是共產制度嗎？

The US is not a popular democracy, in total, for example, our presidential elections. Candidates are selected by individual parties in the primary. Only party member select candidates to run. In the presidential election, votes are tallied on a state by state basis where some states ratio their electoral college votes and others use a’winner take all’ system. In our last election, Donald Trump won the electoral votes but Hillary won the popular vote. Many don’t realize it but agencies and functions like social security, medicare, medicaid, schools, the VA, fire and police services, our national parks, our armed forces, are really forms of Socialism. Today’s fight is with healthcare, which is a hybrid. Medicare for seniors is Socialism, but health care for others is not. In the case of Medicare, it is really a hybrid, like most countries that have healthcare for all. Medicare is a government run program, but medical providers are in the private sector.

美國不是一個民主的民主國家，例如，我們的總統選舉。 候選人由個別的大黨選出。 只有黨員可以選出候選人。 在總統選舉中，選票按各州為基礎進行統計，其中一些州以贏者可以全額拿下該州的選舉人票。 在我們的上一次選舉中，川普贏得了選舉人票，但希拉蕊贏得了民眾的選票。 許多人沒有意識到這一點，但社會福利，醫療保險，醫療保健，學校，退伍軍人事務(Veterans Affairs)，消防和警察部門，我們的國家公園，我們的武裝部隊等機構和職能，實際上是社會主義的形式。 今天的爭議點是健保，這是一種混合制度。 老年人的健保是社會主義，但其他人的健保卻不是。 就健保而言，它實際上是一種混合制度，就像大多數擁有全民健保的國家一樣。 健保(美國聯邦健保，Medicare)是一項政府管理計劃，但醫療服務提供者屬於民間企業。 

So, what in the world is happening? This is what classical thermodynamics calls Entropy, a convergence to a single temperature, or in our example, a single political system. What you are seeing, around the world, is a convergence to a Socialist-Capitalist system. Whether it is politically managed as a Democracy, Meritocracy, or another system, the Socialist-Capitalist reference seems to be where most countries are headed.

那麼，世界上發生了什麼？ 這就是經典熱力學所謂的熵，即溫度的收斂，或者在我們的例子中，稱為單一的政治系統。 你所看到的，在世界各地，是與社會主義 - 資本主義制度的融合。 無論是政治上的民主，精英政治還是其他制度，社會主義資本主義的參考似乎都是大多數國家的發展方向。
