All of these are real problems mentioned by China - how to get anyone to really address even one of them.

lol @ "to the right"

what a sheep you are. You need to seek first to understand....You are on autopilot. You would be way more productive if you were apathetic even.

I think perhaps China is mistaken i the OWS treatemnt. they have been much more effect but certainly not anyhting near as patient i dealig wit protestors.Remmeber they used tnaks the last time and they still jail people for not agreeing. the same CNN did a documentery on new startups i China and some fo the, where the protestoers i the Sqaure. They bascially said they decided it was too dangerous to continue. Perhaps we should send some OWS pople there to see for themselfs.

Send your tea party. They should love it there. No unions and zero workers right. Lots of long hours in the plant and low pay,no benefits. Looks like they should go in mass tonight.

China criticizes us for our prison population? And this coming from a country which simply shoots people for even minor crimes?

Yeah, I guess it's "easy" to hold down your prison population if they never get to the door, ain't it?

Then, they have something to say about the number of guns we have. Well, duh! China wouldn't DARE let their people have guns!

And, they fault us for our high unemployment after having sucked in thousands of our jobs with an artificially devalued currency and the connivance of greedy, US corporate heads?

Gimme a break. Screw the Chinese and their Neo-Con partners who are making them rich.

"Neocon" -- there's that Lefty demon-word that no one can seem to define .... again!

The Chinese are hardly being promoted as a role-model by conservatives; certainly not by conservatives of a libertarian strain. They are, via historical accident, riding a wave of unprecedented rapid economic advancement, like the Japanese who came before them. Unlike the Japanese, they don't have a stronger West looking over their shoulder. They haven't screwed it up -- not yet -- but they likely will.

Now about those conspiracy theories; I've been a moderate participant in conservative causes of various strains since the late 1960's, but my first exposure to the demonized "Koch brothers" didn't begin until about two years ago; ironically, in rants by a couple of dedicated soft-Marxists at another site I used to visit a lot more frequently.

It's a tactic taken straight from the playbook of the late "Tail-Gunner Joe" McCarthy, but it's hard to believe who's trying to make use of it.
