Yes, Dennis, I invited a Chinese guy over to dinner last night,who is a Professor here in the Bay Area and participated in the Chinese student movment that culminated in Tien-An-Men. I am thinking about getting some of these types of people on here to talk about their experiences under so-called "real socialism". Now, I have yet to hear ONE Chinese say much good about their socialist experience and, in the case of my wives parents, many of these people were very enthusiatic about the revolution and joined the Chinese Communist Party around 1949.
I know that the sectoids would just brush them off as counter-revolutionary agents. What can I say, some people just like to stick their head in the sand, or up their ass.
