How China's taking over Africa, and why the West should be VERY

One of my nephews has the right idea. He has a degree in Russian,
joined the Army Rangers and they are teaching him Chinese. We
should ALL learn Russian and Chinese...THAT'S our future! (thanks
to our politicians that have destroyed this country for their own
gain)


We need to export the EPA to China, that will stop them in their
tracks.


How is that Wes?
The Chinese shut down over two THOUSAND factories as gross poluters last
month and are spending $1.9 billion dollars per month on clean and renewable
energy alternatives.

Not even the EPA could accomplish that....


The difference between China and us is that in China business doesn't
tell the government what to do. The government does the telling.
Moreover if any business or businessmen actually have the nerve to
challenge or to try to pay off the Chinese government there's a good
chance they'll be dead in short order. It's funny when you think about
it. In China the government is completely authoritarian and nobody tells
it what to do, and they still throw people in prison forever or kill
them if they don't like what they do. Yet they are doing great in
business. Which only goes to show that you don't have to let business
run your country and that government can do a good job running things.
Those are two things the right wing would have you believe can't be done
here. Maybe they're right. I think our country is more corrupt than
China is. Over there businesses can't pay off the politicians to get
what they want like they can here. And business rules here. Not in
China. Maybe we should learn from them.
