Hilarious that you actually believe china's leaders are self-appointed, and really naive of you to think most in china has much to do with what Mao thinks. But then again it is odd that you think america today has anything to do with the founding dads, and USA team leaders are elected. Premise is what we are wagering on. China, 50 years? The wager should be fun, and already is.

You can look at Mexico to see what values the people hold dear: <THAT is the wisdom that Bejing is about to learn. That the strength of a nation is the sum total of the values that it's PEOPLE hold dear, not a few self-appointed leaders clawing to hold to power. > With Mexicans swarming the border and now in the tens of millions in the USA, they bring their values. The idea that immigrants bring themselves and adopt those Enlightenment values is not totally true. They did and do to the extent that they remain. Now, bludgers and bad debts are pandemic. Now there are swarms of government spivs, making endless regulations. There wasn't even income tax once upon a time. Saving money was a sensible and normal activity. Money was not diluted with fleets of helicopters with Big Ben chucking bales of cash out the door. Exporting factories and capital, goods and services was normals. It still is for Google, Microsoft, Qualcomm, Oracle and swarms of other companies,but there has been a relative decline. Mqurice
