“Suspected heart attack” must be code for “You have failed the Politburo!”

He was so impressed with them he keeled over and died.

He allowed himself a capitalistic thought, and then was smitten by communist conscience and croaked.

“Chinas government is mourning a key engineer behind its aircraft carrier programme who died of a heart attack after witnessing the first landing of a plane on the ship.”
I’m glad that he had least got to see it land (or so they say). I imagine failure would have been the end of his career and the end of his nice life as he knew it. He probably had a fleeting moment of “Yippie - my life will be okay....”

In practice, China is one of the more capitalistic nations around. They just can’t call it that, lest they fail to “save face” for being so anti-capitalist for so long.

C’mon now, folks.
We're conservatives, we pay our own way.
Times are tough on a lot of us, but if you've got a job, really, $5 a month? You're going to miss that? How about turning off the lights when you leave the room? How about dropping the thermostat a degree while you're not at home? How about skipping that fancy pants coffee twice a month?
All we're asking for is $5 a month. Get out that wallet, input your Debit/Credit card #, set up a monthly and forget about it.
If this ham-n-egger can be a dollar a day guy, you can pony up $0.17 a day. Seventeen cents a day for all the time you spend on FR?
Cerainly, a bargain at twice the price, don't you agree?
You'll feel much better about your time on FR.
