Communism has celebrated 70 years of power in China. The country has been through a lot of downs due to the policies of their first leader, Mao Zedong.
After his death in 1976, China transformed itself into an economic powerhouse within 40 years. Yet, the country isn't democratic.
China has some pretty strange laws, as you'd expect from a massive Communist bureaucracy. Here are some of these weird laws.
1). Pornography; – No one can watch porn in China. Even images resembling nudity gets censored by the state apparatus.
2). The Hukou system; – it's a system that is against the free movement of people and it is an old tradition. Implementing the Hukou system means you live your life where you are born. So, people moving to a different province can't get access to healthcare and residency.
3). One Child Policy; – Until recently, families with more than one child were fined. Not only is the law weird, it also has weird exceptions. For example, the law didn't penalize families who had twins and other multiple births, so many families turned to IVF drugs to try to have multiple children without paying fines.
There was also an exception for families with disabled parents, so naturally, some families attempted to game the system by proving mental or physical disabilities that didn't exist.
