there was a Mad Magazine joke about something like this:
The Cambodian government will
then execute everyone without a job and then declare 100%
employment rate

But this has led to wide income
inequalities that the Communist Party is trying to address through
its notion of a "harmonious society" that has a more even
distribution of the benefits of recent decades of speedy economic
growth.
The World Bank says there are 137 million Chinese who live in
poverty, defined as those who consume less than $1 a day.
Zheng said continued development will eliminate "absolute poverty"
by 2020, but he did not give details of this definition. The
Chinese government's official poverty line is about 70 cents a
day.
How come the part in bold sounds so much like communist ideals to
me
About even distribution etc
