- smokeyj 14y ago> eventually trigger revolution. These are the Chinese we're talking about..
- seanmcdirmid 14y agoThe government is corrupt enough that they might as well could trigger a revolution themselves someday. Interference from us would hardly matter.
- scarmig 14y agoIf anything, interference in Chinese domestic matters would solidify the ruling oligarchy's dominance.

- seanmcdirmid 14y agoAnyone starting a revolution now would technically be labelled as a counter-revolutionary (this is the terminology they use at least).
- dobro 14y ago>These are the Chinese we're talking about.. Is this supposed to mean that the Chinese are too tame and subservient? They already had a huge communist revolution -- and two more revolutions in the last 120 years (the Boxer and the Hsin-hai Revolution). Even the last 2-3 decades, they had massive strikes and struggles, and the Tien-An Men square thing.

- pcrh 14y agoThe economic pressure has to be on the people in power, not the man on the street. I doubt those in power are suffering.
