Regardless, its working, and its powerful. Hence my point. I never said it was good, I actually said that I do not condone it. But nonetheless, it is working WELL.
They've had communism for 60+ years as it is today. Only in the early/mid 70's were alot of their state organizations and businesses turned into private companies. I don't think they hate it that much, seeing as though you never hear of any kind of huge uprising against the government that lasts for weeks or months.
Right.....never been a big problem in lets say....Africa? I can't be exact, but I think its the Somalian government that has just a few blocks of order and power within its own borders, the rest of the country is in complete chaos and anarchist rule. Its seriously every man for himself there, a complete devoid area of civilization. So there goes that theory.....
not only is that unethical, its simply unrealistic.
They've been gaining economic power for 20 years, with no huge signs of slowing down. Our own recession was nothing more than a blip for them. It will level off, but its not going to tread back anytime soon, not unless we simply stop using them for outsourcing.
Yes and no. I don't believe it belongs to the people, but I do believe that there should be some sort of one time restitution due to your family's success within the US, especially if that company is a publicly traded one. Pay your way into it, and then do what you wish. But to make millions on the backs of US citizens, die, and give nothing back to the community, is in definite poor taste. You earned your money from US citizens, give something back to the community to better itself. If its in the form of a death tax, so be it.
How do they deserve something they didn't build or work for? That's no different than saying the people that work there don't deserve what THEY work for, even if its FAR less than what the normal employee does? How can you say that a person that struggles everyday with bills goes to their job of $9,50 an hour, deserves not to have insurance because they are unskilled, but turn around and say the child of someone who built the company up get all of it with due right, even if that child is a cluster**** of an individual who snorts 8-balls in the executive bathroom? Where is the logic??
True to an extent, but no one can truly be gullible enough to believe that if you do the right thing and work hard, diligently, that you'll get the luxuries of life. It doesn't work that way. Its more about WHO you know than WHAT you know. You might make a decent living with WHAT you know, but you'll be rich from WHO you know.
Not ownership, but its dues for being the country that provided the ideals and dreams to make it big. If that sounds wrong, then by all means, go overseas and do the same thing. This attitude that anyone can do anything they want at anytime is an illusion. Its not what this country was created for. Total and absolute freedom is a myth, and its only form is anarchy.
All I proved is that communism will give you a good GDP...that doesn't prove that its good.....YEAH GREAT OUR GDP IS AWESOME!! But our lives Stink!! WE live in substandard housing, in filthy conditions, we have no money to buy anything, and our waters are polluted. How does that sound like it works? The only people who live good in China are the Government officials and super dooper elite. ITs a DUMP, who cares if they have a great GDP. Communism is tyrannical and that is how it can achieve a good GDP, by screwing the citizens.
EDIT: I see what you mean about my conflicting views..but remember China is not a full blown commie state it is a Capitalist Communist state, if it was full blown communism it would fail like Russia at a rapid rate. But its only a matter of time before the Chinese people get sick of the horrible living conditions and change things.
Throughout history Tyranny has ALWAYS been the problem, anarchy or too loose of government has never been the big problem.
Look if there was no insurance/health care plans you would have to pay out of your pocket and Doctors would HAVE to charge less so everyone could afford to get help. So health care health insurance/health care is the problem.
Time will tell on China's economy... If it weren't for the regressing U.S. economy, I don't believe that China's economy would be doing quite as well.
So you're saying that my Father's wealth, or stake in a company is just as much yours as it is mine?
that they don't deserve what they've been given.
In free-market Capitalism, it doesn't matter what you're born into you have every opportunity to make a name for yourself. You also have every opportunity to sit on your *** and be poor. Obviously there are social factors involved, but, in a general sense, it is entirely up to you what you do with your life, not the government's or any ruling class...
