Of course, no true American would invest in any morally compromising company- leaving only Bobthecat Enterprises.

MakeMoney... With all due respect- Your general comments about the Chinese Govt. can apply to any country in the world. The difference with regards to the nukes is they got caught. Shame on our security for letting that happen. Regarding the Tinneman Square incident...remember Kent State? Now I am not defending either, but what you are comparing is business to politics. While I will agree that in China's case right now they do intertwine somewhat, I feel you are putting too much emphasis on the Chinese govt. running the show for each and every business enterprise over there. The government to business relationship definitely bears watching but to say hands off totally I can't agree with. This relationship must factor into our DD to help us decide whether or not to invest. Reward to risk ratio...IMO definitely worth it for me. Thanks to all for the welcome here! I am not abandoning my friends at RB, but wanted to put all our heads together and not have to rely on others to post any thoughts I may have at your fine thread. Regards, Ty

>>>>To "Dave Gore". OK - if you're such good friends with these people and trust them so explicitly then tell them to IMMEDIATELY return ANY and ALL of our nuclear and rocketry secrets that they have STOLEN from us and to IMMEDIATELY and COMPLETELY totally destroy ANY and All of the nuclear and rocketry data that they now have which obviously jeopardizes and GREATLY weakens the NATIONAL SECURITY and the NATIONAL DEFENSE of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA!! Oh yeah (BTW) i seem to remember these people having a "few" CIVIL RIGHTS problems just a few years back where they RAN OVER THEIR OWN PEOPLE WITH MILITARY TANKS as a way to "solve" those problems!! HAY - if you really have no problems or reservations about dealing with these kind of people - FINE - go ahead. however - most definitely COUNT ME - and all other TRUE AMERICANS - OUT!! take care.<<<<<< Are you for real MM. You are not going to invest in a company in China because you think the chinese govenrment stole secrets from us and because they had a racial issue over there some years back. ARe you joking? You are bringing up totaly irrelevant reasons not to invest in a stock. I guess anyone who invests in other countries markets are not true Americans either. You sound like a typical investor who invests with his heart and not his mind. And most of them end up holding a lot of sh@# stocks. For the record I don't own CAOL yet but I am looking at it.
