Don't blame China for their indiscretions the "free world" has a Lions share of their own. The US have been guilty of these things themselves - I don't think China has ever nuked anyone
- The toxic toy scandal looks like it originated in the States
- Environmental disaster? look at the pollution the us causes (war, excessive consumption, excessive waste, spent nuclear fuel)
- Poverty? Try East LA, the Bronks, Detroit etc.)
- Oppression? Stripping of the Constitution, wars, policing
- Government Regulation of family size - approved ABORTION
They already are the power! the own the US with 2.3 trillion of their debt

china minds it's own business. the world needs more of that, and less westerners telling everyone else what they are wrong and trying to control them economically and politically.
africa may become a better place to live in the future because china and india want their resources. finally africans have alternatives. god bless capitalism.

the chinease government has a very clear idea of what is it's territorial domain and what isn't. you might not agree with their idea, but does not mean that china's foreign policy isn't distinctly different from that of western countries. because it is.

yeah, that's the problem with communist and socialist countries... they always buy into half backed BS like the 'population crisis' of yesteryear, and they end up screwing themselves in the end

The UN has praised China for it's population control as it has Australia.

If China is such a cool place to live, and it isnt...then why do so many hundreds of thousands emigrate each year to Canada and the US? They emigrate because its a dictatorship with inestimable poverty, human rights abuses and true hopelessness in its population. Why do you think Vancouver has so many Chinese? Its not the ocean air. Its because they deplore living in China.
My point being...as we see China rise to becoming a new Superpower, there are some rather negative things that come with it.

My point is when the UN praise China for their efforts on Population control - the shift of power has already begun

Crosshairs - Have you lived in China? I know some people who have moved there from Canada as English teachers and love it - they have their issues for sure but they have a totalitarian government and 1 billion people to contend with - plus another brewing hatred from the Westerners - They finance the US debt and keep the US economy afloat - they are Capitalists through and through

yeah, because china needs to run their country the way WE want them too. and so do the iraqis.... in fact everyone in the world needs to do what we want them too.
we are just morally superior to EVERYONE, why can't they just realize that and bow down to our economic, political, and military aggression????
