Funny, about 90% of those in poverty where in China. So basically globalisation allowed the world to outsource their labor to Chinese slave labor and raise them out of poverty to the biggest economy in the world in the space of a few decades. And now we’re all going to take a back seat to a hyper-ambitious, psychotic, totalitarian regime with a hard-on for world domination. Not exactly inspiring.
- nopriorarrests 8y ago>hard-on for world domination. looking at number of chinese military bases outside of China, or number of actual wars China participated in last 20 years, you can probably say that China's hard-on for world domination is pretty modest, as compared to... other countries with such hard-on.

Factory labor actually gave them a lot of freedom and self determination - even with all that suicide going on, but the point is that its far more nuanced then you make it out to be. Edit: this article gives a fairly nuanced perspective on this topic, and its even more against my comment and for your comment. http://www.inquiriesjournal.com/articles/1219/empowering-women-in-the-chinese-capitalist-factory-system http://www.inquiriesjournal.com/articles/1219/empowering-wom...
