But if you are not wrong, then your conclusion is than correct by my book. Same. The world is complex, chaotic, the most prevalent law is that of unintended consequences, and the best we can do is offer up the most obvious conclusion or make the smallest, safest ones we can. Small steps and trusting in inescapable and obvious results is the safest course. No big bites, modest opinions and, above all, flexibility so that courses can be radically changed if necessary, are the ways to success. Of course, then there are things that are as obvious as the ocean, and one can think big and small at the same time, things like QCOM in my case and gold in yours. On reflection, I think you are right and that Pei was taking a big bite, might choke on it, despite having more or less the right idea. If he had said "corruption in China is a problem that needs attention," he might have scored. To say, however, that it might be the cause of China's ruin is a bit much.
