“The cleavage point is not that you cannot own private property under communist regimes, it is that even though you think you own it, it can be taken from you for no reason whatsoever.”
How different are we with the EPA declaring your backyard puddle a wetland, or a municipality forcing you to sell your property under eminent domain, or the state passing laws telling you how much you can charge for rent and who you can rent to, or who you can hire?
Problem is we seem to be going where China used to be and China is moving more toward what we used to be.
China is not moving towards what we used to be; if they were, then you’d start seeing the ban lifted on other parties in government and their constitution looking more like the USA’s (subverted) one and not the USSR’s. They are moving towards what the USSR used to be. They are quite bubble-laden economy-wise, too.

This is all true, but not really the point.
We do have limits on what and how the government can seize your property. Just don’t pay the taxes on your house and see how long that takes.
They don’t have any limits. They can take what they want, whenever they want, for no reason at all.
