<<Remember, China used to be many, many independent little power blocks.

Throughout more than two thousands of years of history in China from Qin Dynasty in 200BC, there were only less than 500 years in total when there were numerous small independent power blocks. Those years were, unfortunately, only remembered as the weakest period in Chinese history. Totalitarians or not, it is the only system works in China. Westerners, especially the US, may not like the Chinese system. But it is only up to the majority of the Chinese themselves to judge. The dark age of the imperialism has pasted, thanks God!!!!

May I remind you Yiwu that from time immemorial Northern "Mongol" imperialists ruled southern "native" Chinese in China. Do you remember the great wall? Do you recall the purpose of the great wall Yiwu?

To say that European Imperialists "ruled" China is a misnomer. Did the French, the British or the Americans ever "rule" Chiang? Hell, they could never get him to do what they wanted. The Germans as I recall did "rule" Shensi, but only after they had bought it from officials of a corrupt Chinese administration ruled by a Chinese.

Ref: William Jepsen... "Look at the US and Mexico, with many less hundreds of millions.Call them legit?"

I don't know about you William but I voted in the last election in the US. It has always seemed to me that the US had legitimate elected represntatives. Maybe I'm missing something. Perhaps you know something I don't.

Do you have any investment advice William? Love to hear it.
