Therefore we can only conclude that everyone who would fit into the somewhat nebulous political spectrum label of "liberal" admires the Chinese, as you said.
Man I hope you are working a high level corporate job as a business analyst, your ability to draw solid conclusions based on available and validity of data is really impressive.
Maybe he was one of Romney's political advisors...
All of those leftist liberal CEOs of "American" corporations sacking millions of American workers so they can replace them with communist Chinese peasants.
That's economics not politics. However, who says capitalism and socialism can't coexist. Meet jeff immelt. He's on mr obama's economic council. Some call him mr obama's "jobs czar." His corporation is one of the two largest purchasers of the chevy volt. The other one being the federal government. He's also personally responsible for sending thousands of american jobs overseas.
Of course jeff isn't the only capitalist in bed with this administration. Wanna know who else is involved with this administration, this party?
“The Obama administration gave corporate giant General Electric—the parent company of NBC–$24.9 million in grants from the $787-billion economic “stimulus” law President Barack Obama signed in February 2009, according to records posted by the administration at Recovery.gov.
Despite getting $24.9 million from U.S. taxpayers, GE decreased its U.S.-based employees by 18,000 in 2009, according to the company’s 2009 annual report.
According to Standard & Poor’s, GE took in $156 billion in revenue in 2009.
GE was the primary recipient of 14 stimulus grants, a spokeswoman for Recovery.gov confirmed to CNSNews.com. These 14 grants provided GE with $24.9 million in tax dollars. On four additional stimulus grants, the primary recipient of the federal money hired GE as a contractor. Recovery.gov is the administration’s website that tracks stimulus expenditures.
At the end of 2008, GE employed 152,000 U.S. workers, according to its 2009 annual report. But at the end of 2009, according to the report, it employed only 134,000 U.S. workers, a decline of 18,000 workers.
The Energy Department provided GE with 9 stimulus grants, the Department of Health and Human Services provided the company with 3, and the Justice Department and the Commerce Department each gave the company 1 stimulus grant.
All of these federal stimulus grants went to GE’s Global Research Center.
The earliest of the stimulus grants went to GE in July 2009 and the latest in April 2010.
CNSNews.com asked a GE spokesperson if the company contested Recovery.gov’s representation that GE had received 14 stimulus grants worth $24.9 million, and also whether the company now employed more or fewer workers as a result of receiving the grants.
In an e-mail response, GE spokeswoman Anne Eisele said, “I’m afraid I must politely decline to comment.”
What did all the money to GE go for? Recovery.gov posts brief explanations of each grant. For example, the Department of Justice gave GE $999,955 in stimulus money. “The goal of this program,” said Recovery.gov, “is to develop a comprehensive reasoning system for event and scenario recognition for an intelligent video system.”.........

Your earlier ill-considered comment about the left loving China is still overturned. The economic events of the past two decades speak plainly for who loves China.

In what way? I saw no "overturning." All I saw was belittling of the concept "many" american liberals admire the chinese brand of socialism and a couple of disparaging remarks directed toward myself.
No do I see the idea that corporations who have been involved in shipping jobs overseas, some of whom are deeply connected with this party, this administration, doesn't negate the admiration "some" on the american left have for the chinese brand of socialism either.
Don't tell me you actually think all corporate ceo's are conservatives. In view of the corporate contributions to mr obama and the democratic party, not to mention the fact the democratic party represents some of the richest districts in the country, I find that concept extremely naive to say the least.
Rather than simply stating the premise is false without support or denigrating the poster and declaring victory why don't you provide a persuasive argument supporting your contention I am wrong.

The Hans aren't big on cultural diversity, I'd tread carefully if I was a Uyghurs
Something of an understatement. Virtually all of china's minorities need to tread carefully.
