Bloomberg compares the Wukan standoff with the Occupy Wall Street movement

No, its the complete opposite. One group wants government to leave them alone, and one group wants the government to wipe their ass for them.

Actually, they’re both asking for democracy. China has a totalitarian regime and we have...a totalitarian regime we get to vote on part of every few years. The constitution has been shredded by the very institution it defined to protect it. The Occupy Wall Street protesters are demanding a higher standard to correct that and prevent it from repeating. I hope the people in Wukan achieve control of their government though. They’ll need that to protect their freedom.
