They haven't been Communist for decades and are growing because of that. They are more like a moderately open free market economy with a fascist government.

At least they protect their own businesses and economy - making sure new jobs are created at home when they can. Then again they are a dictatorship and don't rely on creating/importing client states of voters to stay in power - unlike our leaders.
