ok im not condoning human rights abuses but
OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE
CHINA IS THE FUTURE
Ever notice how they can do things that we can't? like oh i dunno, allot 600 billion to renewable energy over the next decade??? these things get mucked up in our democracy and we can get em passed. Sometimes I wonder... I realize as a believer in the western cannon and human rights, self acualization, free markets, individuality, privacy, etc. I may sound blasphemous right now. But hey, how authentic is our democracy anyway?? At least China provides real economic opportunities, the poor get poorer in america by voting against their own interestes, while the Chinese have lifted 400 million ppl out of poverty!!
THIS HAS NEVER BEEN DONE IN HUMAN HISTORY!!!
Can america do that? no.
