so basically you guys dont see an end to Chinese Communism in sight at all? Or do you see a possibility of Chinese Communism slowly eroding away in favour of the all might buck?

not sure what you mean by the "end to Chinese Communism". do you mean the party, or the ideology? the ideology is long dead and buried, although a few old-skoolers grumble about it and try to resurrect the dead once in a while (not that anyone listens).
the party's going to be camping out for a while.
i'm not quite as optimistic as gunnut, in that the CCP will become just another major political party. IF all goes well, in the next few decades we will see the CCP in the role of singapore's PAP, or (most optimistically) japan's LDP circa 1970-1990. according to the CCP's own timeline, it doesn't expect to enter even the -bottom rung- of the "developed nation" club until ~2050-2075.
well, if things are going okey-dokey then, china just might have a shot at the dream of the multi-party democracy.
