There's the issue. China is a hard-scrabble grab for the money. Concern for others is not an issue. If the others go down the gurgler, all to the good to make room for oneself. In a zero-sum game, [China], grabbing the goods is the way to get ahead.

That's how it was for everyone everywhere until quite recent times. Nowhere is very good, but some places are worse than others.

China is in the worse than others category. I am not convinced they will change while such a large proportion of Genghis Khan DNA remains extant. His methodology was NOT to encourage voluntary free exchange of created value and respect for private property and government of minimal proportions. TJ says the Japanese were meanies in Nanking and elsewhere in their attempts to take over East Asia. Some of China's ancestors were not too kind either.
