Charging for Bullets is a little over the top but The "Worldfact book" seems to have a nice "take" on China's Criminal Justice System. Really now how much do you trust it?

I wonder what the Worldfactbok says about Chinese Poitical dissedents who seem to turn up "missing" after going to prison.

The world fact book also does not correctly describe Taiwan.

From Wiki World Fact Book

Taiwan/Republic of China Taiwan has a separate entry not listed under T, but at the bottom of the list.[20] The name "Republic of China" is not listed as Taiwan's "official name" under the "Government" section [21], due to U.S. recognition of Beijing's One-China Policy according to which there is one China - the People's Republic of China - and Taiwan is a part of it.[22] The name "Republic of China" was briefly added on January 27, 2005 [23] but has since been changed back to "none".[24] (See also: Political status of Taiwan, Legal status of Taiwan)

Not a lot...

Amnesty International claims that China does execute drug offenders in spite of the laws they have on the books...I don't trust a lot of what they say either.

At any rate, China stands as a poor model of anything.
