And slavery certainly existed in Adam Smith's day, both in the US and the UK.

I thought that in the U.S. and U.K., anyone can take any job they can get hired
for, at any wage and benefits that they can negotiate.

Does the U.K. have Affirmative Action? �In the USA, you can be hired
by the color of your skin (ancestry / lineage) , even if you get
scored 73 on your essay test.

Using a #2 pencil on the official application can get you into the
interview office.

Your reply (immediately above) still doesn't change my contention that in the
U.S. you can take any job that you can get hired for.

Your earlier comments never mentioned that the criteria for hiring in the U.S.
differ from those in China. �That's an entirely different issue. �By introducing
new issues (in effect, changing the subject) at this point doesn't change the
validity of my reply.

By the way, I suspect that Han Chinese get hired for most jobs in China more
easily than do Tibetan Chinese and other minority Chinese sects. �So they too do
not have a level playing field when it comes to job opportunities.- Hide quoted text -

There is no such thing as Tibetan Chinese. Tibet is an occupied
country.
