Quote: "Keep a cool head and maintain a low profile. Never take the lead - but aim to do something big."
-Deng Xiaoping
Subjunctive question: How much of a worse state would china be in today if the one child policy was no implemented? 
Summary: Deng Xiaoping implemented many changes when he came into power. He adopted the one child policy to restrict the number of children people could have, he brought in a marriage law. In addition there were many economic changes for instance he encourages farmers to sell in the open market and he china also joined the international monetary fund and the world bank under his control.
