China truly is embracing capitalism!

So true! If you ever want to make a bureaucrat mad, confused, or disgusted then just introduce a new idea to him/her. This drives these people crazy.

Of course, they already know what's best for all of us, as they go about day to day looking out for our best interests. ;>)

drcha -the law in America is owned by the people who can afford the best lawyer. If you think otherwise then you have very rich parents or have never been involved in a legal skirmish.
Point 2.The last pretense of the capitalist system in America that once might have rewarded risk and entrepreneurship has been completely destroyed by the bank bail out, and has been undermined for many years by the public sector and scumbag politicians.
The cold war is over and I don't know whether your ignorance about the Chinese is based on following CNN or FOX but you sure as hell haven't been there or have any experience of the comparative culture to think that they are still the enemy.
Capitalism is thriving in China, and for their faults, I think there is a brutal honesty about the way their government acts at times.
What do we have? Terrorist fundraisers like the Kenedey's dressing themselves up as the good guys?
Eat McDonalds, drive a ford, buy an Apple computer - do what they tell you but whatever you do -don't think for yourself.

I have no dispute with your first point. No rich parents, and yes, like many people I do have some experience with "the system."

Point 2, I must take exception. Here, you are putting words in my mouth. WTF does any of this have to do with the cold war? Yes, I have been to China and I have several Chinese friends. I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT consider the Chinese people the enemy. I love the Chinese people. But I do consider the Chinese government the enemy of freedom, and of its own people. I grant you that our country has descended into socialism and is proceeding in an alarming direction at an alarming rate. But the very fact that I can write those words, and you can read them, without either of us being tossed in prison and the key thrown away, points out a major difference between their system of government and ours.

I have not eaten in McDonalds for 30+ years. I would not take a Ford or an Apple computer if you gave it to me. And by the way, I don't get my news from FOX or CNN--neither of which provides anything that could be called news. Please stick to the statements I am making here, and avoid making up your own version of who I am.
