Gee sounds just like the GQP without the ability the Chinese have to build anything of value...

Please be careful about exaggerating what's going on there.

@OldMetalHead I'm afraid I can't concur with you.
It's true the Chinese are under an oppressive iron hand....but I know at least one entrepreneur who lives in China and does well there.
I'm afraid we, like they, no doubt - hear the governments' interpretation of what's going on there. I know that even the Dalai Lama had to move to India to avoid persecution by China....
and I know of the oppression that's going on there...and their financial status...the probability that the COVID19 virus started there....etc...
But when you look at the awful records we hold for per capita prisoners, gun deaths, drug overdoses, bankruptcies, declining age expectancies (due to our horrible health care) even divorces...and then you look around your home and see all the "made in China" labels....it makes you reflect....
