So... Has the CCP just been bettering living conditions by accident?

Do you even understand how the CCP structure works? Xi Jinping has some power, but it's mostly checked by the fact that he's not some omniscient being presiding over the People's Congress.

Xi has focussed his efforts mostly in Beijing. The Shanghai clique is no more, and standards are declining accordingly.

Please don't assume everyone commenting here only has a very blurry view from afar.
