Amid the recent reports of great social unrest in the PRC, I believe three items have been overlooked. Food, medical and housing can be (and in many cases are) provided by the State. Please correct me if that is not true. I could not intend to mitigate in any way the plight of the unemployed in the PRC, but I believe there is basic subsistence. Just trying to get focused on the real cause of all the reported unrest -- unequal income distribution. And, that's putting it mildly. The facts may provide for a more honest prediction of what the future holds for both the PRC and the Hong Kong SAR. Good morning.
