Over a year ago, I was watching the E! Channel when Brooke and the rest traveled all over the world.

They did a segment in China.  I was amazed at the thousands of American's working and owning business's right there in China!  Disco's and restaurants.  You name it.  We have thousands of our own making huge bucks and living in China.

I am still pinching myself.

Not so amazing. What is amazing is that they have to fork over 50% control to a Chinese Partner who may or may not do anything other than take the partnership monies, and pay the help...pocketing a good chunk on the side...so what was supposed to be pay of say, $1.00 an hour, miraculously gets knocked down to 37 cents an hour. Can we say embezzlement?

And the U.S. partner can't get rid of their Chinese "partner" who is usually a party princeling, or a PLA reservist who "owns" 50% of the operation...
