On To China. And Wal-Mart. And The Rottweiler.

Misha has a go at bestowing Most Favored Nation status upon the Chin Dynasty:

"That’s the name of the trade status that changing Administrations of both political stripes have been eager to bestow upon the Butchers of Beijing.

Makes an American proud to know that we’re pumping billions of dollars into a regime responsible for the brutal murder and torture of millions, doesn’t it? Who knows? The money you paid for that coffee maker at Wal*Mart the other day might have been spent on a bullet Made in China as well. A bullet shot into the back of the head of a man, woman or child in a concentration camp located in that “Most Favored Nation.”

Think about it.

Oh yes, I know all about the “brilliant plan” to turn them into a capitalist democracy by sneaking money into their hellhole of a dictatorial cesspit nation.

So far, we’ve accomplished to change their status from “murdering, tyrannical, communist swine” to “filthy rich murdering, tyrannical, communist swine.” If that doesn’t bother you much either, then perhaps the fact that keeping them rich, fat and happy has also kept them around will. I don’t think I have to point out what inevitably happens to communist economies and, by extension, their regimes if you leave them to fend for themselves. Just ask the Soviet Union. Oh wait, you can’t. They’re not around anymore..."

He's spot-on and read it all. Messenger has been ranting, raving and ridiculing The Great Wall Of China Mart forever, and is in complete agreement with the irrefutable fact that Chin CANNOT succeed as long as it remains the barbaric dictatorship we see today. And the absolute crazy thing about it all is that some people have been fooled into believing it will turn into this juggernaut of immense economic power. Beg pardon? They're NOT fooled, they just want to make a quick buck while Chin still has two pennies to rub together? Oh. Never mind.
