[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1237619, member: 24302"] The difference is China is quickly opening up, recognizing that they have to allow capitalism in order to improve their people's lives. It's constructive engagement started by Nixon. Cuba on the other hand is run by hard line communists who refuse to relinquish any control over their citizens' lives. Are the Chinese bosses angels? Of course not, but you seem to think we have the right to dictate to them. It's the people of China who'll have the final say, not us. The Chinese are recovering from the effect of decades of hard line communism. Capitalism has greatly improved the lives of hundreds of millions there. You talk about Bush this, Bush that, everything's Bush's fault. Imagine a system that impoverished most of the population for decades, then tell me how YOU would turn China around, especially without a massive civil war. [/QUOTE]
