Survey: China a Marxist Country with Blossoming Capitalist Sentiment

It appears that the average Chinese has been more accommodative to capitalism than Americans.

From Bloomberg, (bold mine)
Survey respondents in the officially Marxist country were slightly more supportive of capitalism than people polled in the U.S. Seventy-four percent of Chinese surveyed said they either completely or mostly agreed with the statement that most people are better off in a free-market economy, compared with 67 percent of Americans.
More proof that the ongoing political struggle in China has been about the emergence of the politics of entrepreneurship or economic freedom.
