Accountable to its people should mean accountable to its criminals

Hmmm.... So all the Chinese people, EXCEPT THE COMMUNISTS, are criminals?

That's not very "proletarian" of you... :0)

To my surprise, all the gangster activities in Macau and Hong Kong are pretty much under control after taken-over.

Just wait.. I don't suspect that will remain the case without major upheaval down the road. Somewhere the interests of economic and personal freedom will inevitably clash with those have proclaimed themselves the unelected guardians of "all that is good"...

When you give people economic freedom, political and personal freedom will not linger far behind.

And the more you attempt to repress it, the more it will wash over all of Chinese society when it finally can be contained no longer.

Because, as you foolishly fail to realize, government repression of freedom is the most destabilizing element in society. Any order that is maintained is strictly artificial and not based upon the consent of the people.
