"It's too late for Germany" (but not for Poland) [1798]
But there will be a time when the party leader becomes a puppet of chinese money...
The quoted sentence is very applicable to the US where it takes a billion to be elected president. China has no elections, hence, no need for money to stay in power. A couple of thousand loyal army men with real machine guns loaded with real bullets are a perfect substitute for elections. Remember 1989 and the tanks?
The party needs the rich traders, builders, entrepreneurs...totally contrary to their touted communist ideals.
To create wealth and pay taxes, not to give the communists power and the guns they already have, minus any real opposition.
When that moron, Nixon, hugged Mao and "opened the door to China", the US naively thought that the process you are hoping for will take place and soon. Nothing of the sort happened. Instead, China, by our own admission, has become a bigger threat to the US than ever.
Finally, why would the Chinese commies and anyone with them want a change? To turn China into the mess they see in the US and Europe, while they are getting everything they want and everybody falling over each other to appease them, including Google? What would those high ranking rebels want instead? They are, like the top, not stupid. Only we and Europe are.
