It's not communism at all, it's a regulated market, similar to what we have now.

In China you can only have 20 or 70 year leases, you don't 'own' residential properties which is why they buy in Australia so they can get money out of the system and pass something down to their children.

If you had a free market there'd be no minimum wage, no minimum employment conditions/awards/environmental protections, no anti discrimination legislation or legislation against anti competitive behavior etc.
