    There seems to be far too much attention in this thread to the communist state and the poor people at the bottom. don't forget the hundreds of millions of middle classes, and hundreds of thousands of millionaires, whom, like the west wield a lot of power.

    Look further than the media spin, China's government is trying really hard to find a political system which is fair for everyone, environmentally friendly, uncorrupted and stable.
    Middle classes just want good education for their children,
    Millionaires want yachts not world domination.

    Don't believe the hype. What is happening here is far less bloody than our own industrialisation. And far more complex, as we didn't have CNN bitching about our cotton mills and beat downs.

    don't buy Chinese? don't buy American? don't buy African? don't buy things made my humans? This government didn't set up the factory, your government didn't design and order the product, it's all people like you and me.

    • less bloody because the chickens haven't come home to roost yet. they will.TheBlueOne
