This is the dumbest post ever on cyclonefanatics! And I am sure you have never read something truethful about china let alone visited china
I came from China and have lived in US for many years and I call both places home. Todays China is 100% different from your imagination. China now is a captalism society (aka "free society"). People can critize everyone, including the communist party chairman on the street or internet, without fearing anything (of course, they still only have limited freedom on this matter on newspaper or other public media)
I accredit China's fast development to the free market competition (captalism), and chinese people's hardworking nature. Chinese people generally working longer hours than US workers, and my friends there have more pressure than I do. For a simple example of comparison, road construction there typically takes weeks, while here in US it typically takes months or years. That is how we are catching up.
Of course China has its own problems, but a military invasion will certainly send both countries to stone age.
