All I can really say is that I hope I am not brainwashed, I can still think for myself and recognise propaganda when I see it.

You know, maybe human beings are incapable of living without corruption and violence and that the "civil society" we all aspire to is an unobtainable myth.

But I hope the apocalypse that you see coming, like the economic disaster you foresaw (caused by the banks), doesn't happen.

Presently China is busy buying up USA land & businesses. Oh .. of course China is not of any risk to USA. Despite China recently designed an anti-aircraft carrier missile (I wonder whom they were thinking of when they designed it.)

Oh & who cares China shows no respect to the international copyright & patent laws. They just copy it all & put their own name & interface to it. then sell it over the internet. :D With China's economy so high now, & despite improvements in infrastructure compared to some years ago for producton, one could argue China is no longer the preferred cheaper alternative for production other than their cheap staff wages. Oh well, I guess the USA & European company bosses still see a few $ being saved at the sake of local jobs which they obviously don't care about.

Made in China or was it .. made in the state of Taliban. Company bosses probably don't really care. :D

Don't buy their products is one way to show repentence & demonstration.

I'll definitely never buy anything made by the Sony company (-> Sony boss is RIAA head). And Sony sacked lots of local bands when they took over our local major recording companies & studios. Oh a friendly bunch Sony are. :rolleyes: And don't Sony & RIAA 'care' about the music bands & artists .. like yeah sure. Just a throw-away item to them.

Oops off topic.

buy China?

tainted with melamine and lead?

you're kidding, right?

China is also buying up land and businesses in other countries as well, such as parts of the EU and Africa.

From what I understand, the primary businesses China is buying in Africa is causing some resentment because they are undercutting home grown traders and putting them out of business.

Whether we like it or not, world economic and political power are moving eastward.
