Balance growth with social equity

Some Chinese miss the "good old days" when the wealth gap between the haves and have-nots was not as stark as it is now.
Certainly, their lives are better today, yet they hate the social inequities brought on by the seemingly laissez faire policies of the past three decades.
Some even say they would rather put up with the rationing of the past (prior to 1979) than witness the wallets of capitalists or speculators grow fatter, as wealth tilts in favor of the haves.
