Well, as long as you forget about the oppressive Communist government and the lack of freedom and the Internet filtering and the re-education camps China sounds really groovy:
Everybodys watching whats going on in Beijing right now with the Olympics. Think about the amount of money that China has spent on infrastructure. Their ports, their train systems, their airports are vastly the superior to us now, which means if you are a corporation deciding where to do business youre starting to think, Beijing looks like a pretty good option.Does Barack Obama understand the nature of the Beijing regime? The reason that the government can afford all of this spending is that they control the means of production and the wealth of the nation. They can confiscate what they want at will and spend it where they like. And in Beijing, they spent it where the cameras would be pointed.
Unfortunately, most of what the cameras see is just a facade, as Dale Franks points out at Q&O:

Teacher who cited flimsy schools after China earthquake reportedly detained
I saw a lady in a BMW today (Illinois) and she had a big OBAMA sticker on her trunk! I so wanted to stop her & ask her if she was just released from a mental institution. I also wanted to tell her, that when her precious Messiah gets elected, she can kiss that BMW GOODBYE!
The sticker was round & said OBAMA-CHANGE 2008!
Obama thinks China is the shining example America should look up to. I don’t even know where to begin.
What a freakin’ gift.
Calling McCain....
Bam.
Obama just doesn’t have a clue about so many things. Almost seems like a kid or teenager on his first trip out of state.
Scary to think 45-50% of Americans will vote for him in November.
Either does Obama. China is Obama’s wet dream. And watch your friendly liberals here in the US follow this dead beat down a rat hole.
McCain must be the one to expose the communist Obama. The MSM loves Obama’s message.
Scary to know that about half of the citizens and illegals in the United States are socialist and communist. “Where is my check?”
If so, he would see first hand the poverty in the Countryside and realize that Beijing, Shanghai and Dalian are just paper tigers covering up how the rest of the population exist in China!
What a bozo!
Obama is an Affirmative Action success story! So much for AA.
Words fail me - and that’s not a condition I suffer from frequently (as y’all know).
