The power of knowledge is in mortal combat with the knowledge of power. It really is that simple... That's the Edenic apple we are all munching on.

"...and so it goes."

I guess you are saying that finally the Opium Wars are ending? the victors declared too early? My, how fast 150 years go by.

It occurred to me while reading some silly right wingers article...he was building his frame on how unfair the Chinese system was, because the state banks were funding industries without regard to profit...

THEY'RE COMMUNISTS YOU IDIOT~!

It's like the mirage the Reaganistas created, imagining that capitalism won the war against the fascism of Russia...the Chinese are proclaimed as having turned into capitalists when all they are doing is using tools that others attribute to capitalism.

"...and so on."

Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.
