What better way to bring the truth of those Rights to a society than to work with them, side by side, to help them move their society towards recognition of those Rights. Show them the results of the fruits of their labors, the fruits of my labors, and how those societies consider each person.

Yeah, we should have "worked together" with the British instead of taking up arms. The Chinese government is composed of a bunch of thuggish dictators. The only way to deal with people like that is by force, and from what I've observed, the Chinese as a society don't have the balls to do the right thing.

By no means is China as close to those ideals as the US; far from it! But they are infinitely better and more open - politically, socially, and economically - than they were 15 years ago.

Nice country you're shilling for there, pal.

Yes, go ahead... Ever been to China? No? Didn’t think so...

Guess what - most of the Chinese - peasant and billionaire alike - are pretty happy with the progress being made, and want more of it to happen. And it’s moving in the right direction, so why not support that?

No, your solution is to wage war, kill millions on both sides, destroy economies world wide, and push something faster than the population desires. Really insightful approach! REAL winner of a plan there!

In two generations, the China you see will be vastly different than the China of today, a lot closer to Japan and Taiwan than the old China of Mao.

What’s your solution for “dealing with” China? If you’re so brilliant, treat us to your approach!
