Wow...
thanks to whoever made that film... it says it so well...
American leaders have sold us out to China for so long, that even the Chinese people want to make us aware of it...
Because they also are dealing with corruption...
the makers of this film, may come across smug, but they are also doing us a favor...
You have to watch it all, the first five minutes just come across hateful, but they are being sarcastic... not hateful...
actually, China is dying the same way that America is... (in its spirit)
but it is also being reborn... as a world acceptable country.
America is kinda going the other way... the things that make this country worth fighting for, its values and freedoms, are being taken away...
While China is expanding, it is also falling victim to the price of that expansion... it is being less controlled, and more relaxed in its government.
It has to....
True democracy, and capitalism have started to take shape in the Communist nation,
As Russia can attest, once started, captialism cannot be put back into the bottle...
no matter how many Communists sit on the cork...
I have hopes that the Chinese have the same wish for freedom, and security, as well as financial gain... the bug has bit them, and the itch will be
scratched.
This will make the China of tommorow, much like the America of yesterday...
I just wish all the cultural baiting wouldn't take place...
We need to be happy for our Chinese brothers and sisters, that they are attaining the vision of a progressive and advanced nation.
And hopefully (as in Hong Kong), the communist aspect will fall by the wayside out of neccessity.
I do see a future where Tiawan will voluntarily join back to a strong and free china...
gotta get the strong and free china first though...
