Pollution in China

[Seth]

Hey, ever debilitated, dead Communist is a good Communist. Maybe with all the pollution and oppression people will get fed up enough with their Communist masters to put THEM all on their knees and put a bullet in their necks, then China can become a true capitalist free market society and join the civilized world.

Until then, the more chronic lung disease and cancer they get, the better, it makes them weaker as enemies, which they are right now.

Oh, I'm sure they could rustle up a few million men without chronic disease and lung cancer to be your enemy.

Sounds like a call for MORE pollution, not less.

It's horrible.

I have sent the link to someone else. He can't see it because he is in China at the moment. The site is blocked there.

Gee, I wonder why, and by whom?

Could it be........Communists!?

In view of the Chinese citizens whose personal wealth amounts to millions and even billions, and whose wealth does in no way seem to be objectionable to the Chinese government, I don't see how that government can be called communistic. It's a dictatorship of sorts, but then China had nothing resembling a democracy in all its history, so that's not news. Economically, China has become capitalist in all but name. It is dotted with privately owned manufacturing plants that spread over as much as three square kilometres and have dedicated freeway on and off ramps for their up to 100,000 employees. Apart from those behemoths, there are millions of smaller privately owned companies operating in a nation that was once run along the principle of collective ownership. Mao would turn in his grave if he knew what China has come to now.

No it doesn't.

China is the most capitalist country on Earth, it makes US employment regulation look positively communist. Its one of the reasons Western multinationals are very keen to do business with them it increases their profits as they don't need to bother with evil socialist concepts like not killing your employers, ensuring they get healthcare or a maximum working week.

I certainly don't think much of China human rights record but they are hardly a threat, hardly going to go to war with their own customers (us)
