It would be a miracle if the Chinese altered their direction and became less autocratic. Their culture is built around a top-down compliance model, and most Chinese would be lost if that changed in any significant way. Let's be honest.

The Western model of self first and society second is counter intuitive to anyone raised to believe the opposite.
