Laozi was a Chinese philosopher who created the idea of Daoism. Laozi thought that both Communism and Legalism were a little off with there ideas to re-create a better society, so he came up with the brilliant idea to combine them. From that, he got the philosophy of Daoism. It wasn't too strict, but it did have a few set rules/guidelines for the people of China to follow. It lasted for over 200 years, while Legalism lasted less than 50. Obviously, Laozi was on the right track.
