With 85 million dues-paying members, just over 6% of China’s population of 1.35 billion, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is the largest political party in the world with some 80+ million members (2013 data).

Problems lie in China's [[single-party control|one-party system]]. It exercises extreme control over every aspect of the Chinese people's lives, from what they see on [[social media]] to how many children they can have. The Chinese Communist party tries to be all-powerful. The entire structure of the Communist Party, from top to bottom, encourages corruption and abuses. In this type of system, the party takes all the credit when things go well, but it bears none of the blame when things go badly. With great power comes great responsibility, except the CCP holds an opposite doctrine. It wants to have all the power and not take any responsibility, especially when things go wrong.
Since 2011 the Chinese government's Internal Security budget, which is also known as their Stability Maintenance budget, has been larger than their military budget. The Communist Party considers any threat to stability as a threat to their rule.
