Wall St returns are good, but watch China

The guys who challenge the party, and are successful, are challenging it from the inside out.

Anything percieved as 'outside-in' is not well recieved.

Seeing how the first statement in this post is true, that is why things are not always as they seem. While labeled "communist" Party, that might not be true in the real ideologically restrictive sense of the word, at least some elements that is.

That is kind of what I have been saying all along.

China is not a big one thought one thinking kind of place. America has some friends in China, especially those who are not tied up in Communist thought, Mao etc. America also has enemies in China who ARE tied up in such things such as beligerant radical thought and beliefs of the boogey man out to get them. The good thing for the former group is that reform is in vogue. Its been prooven to work, and the other has been prooven not to improve anyone's life. But hey, since when did being wrong stop a revolution or a fight over who has power?

It definately leaves mixed feelings sometimes.
