I found this article and it seems pretty interesting. China as we all know is a communist country and they always have been, they have been used to warlords or people with brute force to run the country since thats what they are used to much like Arab countries and "Dictators" its what they are born into. China has become more western then they will admit since doing so would seem "uncommunist" and their economy is strong because of western ideas in it thats how the world works you put new ideas with old ones. China says 7.5 is a bad number for growth but any country would love that number especially the United States even Greece would like half of that if they could get it. Will China become a free country in the future? its possible but only if the economy really grinds to a halt and more people protest then i believe thats a slim chance they will ever get full freedom and not some commie coming to your house to "listen" to your "ideas"
I would love to see Chinese people protest their way out of oppression. But I think it won't happen anytime soon because of how good their economy is.. People are generally happy in China and too obedient to rebel and break Chinese "law" so much.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Emma on this, except that their economy is steadily growing.. but so are their people (in numbers.. not height, I believe they're still relatively short) but the economy can't continue to keep growing with the people, and the widening wealth gap will cause more unrest in the future.
ReplyDeleteThe people will eventually get fed up by being screwed over time and time again. It will take some time but a revolt will come eventually. With that many people, a revolution will be quite hard to stop.
