有印度網友談到78年中印差距不大，現已差四倍。有人回帖.

I think a lot of people failed in two aspects when they described China before 1978: firstly, before 1978, China was a totally planned economy, therefore, you could not compare an planned economy and a market economy strength just by their incomes. At those days ( I lived 14 years in that system), cash income was low, but you did not need to buy a lot of things: free education, health care, rice, distribution in kind, commodities at very low prices. Literally, there were no poor people or rich people. Everyone was taken care of by the collective or government. Robbing and stealing were extremely rare. Secondly, China\'s reform started in 1978, but the system before 1978 laid a very solid foundation for the reform and future development, that is the social capital (compared of India at the same time): literacy level was high, the idea of being equal was deep rooted, there was a well-planned industrial system and highly-united and motivated people.

我給翻了一下，有錯請提出。

我認為很多人在描述1978年前的中國時犯了兩個錯誤。

第一，在1978年前，中國完全是一個計劃經濟，因此，你不能僅憑他們的收入來對比
一個計劃經濟和一個市場經濟的力度。在那些日子裏（我在那種體係下生活過14年）
現金收入很低，但是你不需要買很多東西。免費教育，醫療。米的分配以低價。基本
生活品價格很低。理論上，不存在窮人和富人。有政府或集體來關心每個人。搶劫和
偷竊現象極少。

第二，中國的改革始於1978年，但是在1978年前的體係給這種改革和將來的發展留下
了非常堅實的基礎，那就是社會性資產（對比印度同時期）。平均文化程度很高。平
等思想已紮根於人們頭腦中。存在著一個良好規劃的工業體係和高度團結和有進取心
的人民。
