#3 Well, at least the Chinese are adaptable to the concept of rewarding success rather than punishing it and not rewarding failure at this time. Something fundamental that seems to have disappeared from the American environment. The Chinese also don't seemed tied down with the 'victim' culture to retard or inhibit things that need to be done.

No accountablity of representatives to people - check
controlled media - check
government interference in all capitalist ventures - soon to be check
