i'm confused. someone on the TV news (don't remember if

[catmother]

it was a politician) said that china has 550 million people who are poor. they live on a dollar a day. but we borrow money from china and japan. so if they have all this money why do they have poor people? this person also said that we have to teach china how to manage their country.

1. Sounds immenently logical and well informed

Make no mistake, many chinese people are indeed screwed by communism, but the idea that we can just fix them is kind of funny.

2. we can't even fix our own country. it's the money part that gets

me. communism is supposed to take care of their own, yet they have poor people and the government has plenty of money to lend to us. i've heard that we owe china so much money that pretty soon they'll own us.

3. Obviously what they practice isn't true communism, then. I am not even

sure real communism can be done outside small groups of willing participants.
