Answer: A massive famine unintentionally killed more than 30 million people, mostly because of poor planning.

Explanation:

You attached no passage but I believe you must be referring to the Great Leap Forward.

After the Communists took over in China, they tried to come up with programs to get the economy to catch up to the west. One such program was the Great Leap Forward.

The people were reorganized into communes to work in the countryside and were tasked with increasing agricultural yields.

Mao set targets that these communes had to meet and when they couldn't, their leaders would still report that they did because they didn't want to be punished. In reporting those exaggerated figures, the "surpluses" would be taken from the communes.

As there were actually no surpluses being taken, what was being taken was people's food so there was widespread starvation that led to the deaths of over 30 million people.

When the framers designed the US Constitution they did not give the Federal government much power so power was balanced between States and Central Government. But the Federal government has gained more and more power over time. At the same time, the States were restricted over the years, when the Framers did not imagine doing so.

Both of these situations can be good or bad. For example, making the States respect the Bill of Rights was a good thing when individuals had their basic rights stripped on a State level. So making only the Federal government respect the Bill of Rights did not make much sense.

At the same time, the Federal Government has shown much power that was not designed and showed a few issues over the years, especially with the Executive Branch that had in a few opportunities overstepped its powers.
