8060 8061 Your posts and you are to me answering your own uncertainty. China has few laws the fewer the laws the easier it is to do business, The easier you make it to do business the more capitalist you are. Where you can easily put capital without legal restraints on that capital is where China is now. Ten years from now it is scary like the statue of Mao in Tibet China is saying this is who I am root wise. She at present has opened her door to any and all mentors. Twenty years from now it could be an entirely different story but right now she courts the world holds on to what is hers and politically is neutral.

Rule of law means you aren't ruled by men, but by laws. That's what, "It comes from what the state can get away with before the people get too unruly", means. Proof: This got people away from despotic individuals capriciously deciding who got what and political organization by the Church. The greatest addition to this idea was to democracise the law, to make all individuals subject to the same laws. The idea being that no one would want to pass an unjust law that they themselves were also subject to. The biggest problem we have here in the US is that we have increasingly passed laws that aren't blind to whom they will effect but purposely directed towards one group of individuals over another. Eventually ALL of those laws will be found to be unconstitutional. QED. The reason it is important to not be ruled by caprice is that it allows for economic agents to properly plan and to calculate their gains and losses. Sounds like socialism, and if true, shows that law and rights which tend support capitalism, tend to undermine it too, for capitalism needs unplanned outcomes. Supporting point: the bearers of law, lawyers, are anti-capitalistic.
