China is communist-light, meaning they still allow people to enrich themselves.
A frfiend of mine (gamer) decided one morning to open a boba tea shop on a corner street. Got a local license for less than $5 here and that's it. He put his shop there and make $1000+ usd a day. No taxes, no form to file, no report to make - you buy your tapioca stuff, your tea from local stores in the morning, and make tea, and thats it.
After a few weeks competitors open and he just stopped as he went from 1k a day to 100 and it wasn't worth it anymore (less than $10 an hour).
In the US he'd need to spend hundreds of thousands just to be allowed to be considered to open that kind of business.
