Actually, the most popular language is Mandarin Chinese(go ahead and google search it). Also, it certainly ISNT the easiest to learn/speak/spell. The reason for that is pretty obvious from its history since it comes from a combination of French and a Germanic language. So it ended up being a messed up version of both and has massive numbers of exceptions(i before e except after 'c' or in "ei" as in neighbor or after 'w' like in weird and I believe there's more exceptions to that one as well, just can't remember them).
As for your comments about China, it's barely "communist" anymore, the government has been less and less a part of people's lives for the past couple decades. Of course it still has its(another exception, no apostrophe there even though there is in every other word) problems, but at this point I think it'd be safe to say it pretty closely mirrors the United States' state in the late 1800's/early 1900's. There were certainly ample amounts of people who could afford luxury's back then here and similarly there are many in China now who can.
