And they acknowledge problems openly to the world. How many dead coalminers in China this year? We don't really know. Numbers may be as high as tens of thousands. Before one can solve a problem, first, one must acknowledge that problem. In doomed nations, denial is the first step to disintegration and doom. How many dead coalminers?
Well, China is not a doomed nation. Apparently some in the party want to publize little reported and massively high death rates in coal mines. Same for massive death rates due to air and water pollution. Which is higher? Death from crimes in America's streets? Or dead Chinese miners due to criminal action by coal mine management?
IOW China also is not a doomed nation if smarter Chinese will start exposing their problems so that problems can be solved. Then who is working for whom?
One sign of a doomed nation: workers work for top management. One sign of a successful nation: top management instead works for the workers.
Why does America currently have some serious problems? America's current top government leaders have a communist mentality. Cheney believes we all work for him and that he needs more power. Therefore America is in denial of some major and festering problems.
