Will China's government look at what their policies have done to their nation?

China's rich refuse to stay in the mess that they created. The idea of success in China is to get rich off other's suffering, then take the money and run to somewhere more clean, safe and free to enjoy their 'earnings'. Perhaps the elite in China don't understand the consequences of not having social justice or free speech. They won't get to keep the financial gains if money can't buy you clean air, food, or safety.

the only thing i see is economic sabatoge coming from the west, and imf. i also see the same kind of western economic sabatoge going on throughout asia and africa. ever wonder why asia and africa are so poor? i dont think its because the people are any less intelligent or hard working. maybe just less evil, as the west constantly tries to sabatoge their industries, and often times use military aggression. i think if the usa and europe were out of the picture, Chinese lives would drastically improve. in fact, Chinese lives coincidentially started to erode the minute they came in contact with europeans. what a coincidence, the lives of indians, native americans, africans, filipinos lives also started to decline with the arrival of european "settlers". seems to me like americans and europeans are a cancer to be reckoned with.

China's government doesn't consider the Chinese people as part of the nation. People are just tools to be used to make money. The people that do what one tells them to, then the more money one makes. The rich can always run away with the money. What would be the point of getting rich, if it didn't allow you to break the law anytime you want?

It is all about making money, no more no less. Where I live in Sydney my dad's Chinese friends would come here and buy a $400k business with cash for business immigration, as soon as permanent residence is approved, they buy a house as a first investment, but they don't even live in it. The Chinese lady who bought a takeway shop near my workplace last month bought a $1.6million house, and she has no plan to live in it or renting it. As a condition for PR approval, she must live in Australia for three months. When the time is up, she can't wait to go back and help her husband's business. My Chinese father is an Australian citizen, but he stays in shanghai for business longer than in Australia. Wealthy Chinese migrate overseas to diversify their assets, this DOES NOT mean they don't want to live in China anymore. There are many restrictions for Chinese nationals to invest overseas, especially land.

You need to pull your head out of the sand.

The poor Chinese would want to come here because there is higher social welfare than China. However Australian government does NOT accept poor Chinese.

Why do no longer you ask interior the China area? that is such as you ask limitless rhetorical questions approximately China interior the Taiwan so which you will study solutions out of your anti-China acquaintances to justify your ego and ideology. As on your article, no offense yet you're very naive. that is all approximately incomes income, not greater no much less. the place I stay in Sydney my dad's chinese language acquaintances could come right here and purchase a $400k employer with money for employer immigration, as quickly as everlasting place of abode is authorized, they purchase a house as a common investment, yet they do no longer even stay in it. The chinese language lady who offered a takeway shop close to my place of work final month offered a $a million.6million abode, and she or he has no plan to stay in it or renting it. As a topic for PR approval, she could desire to stay in Australia for 3 months. whilst the time is up, she will't wait to flow lower back and help her husband's employer. My chinese language father is an Australian citizen, yet he remains in shanghai for employer longer than in Australia. wealthy chinese language migrate distant places to diversify their sources, this does not recommend they do no longer prefer to stay in China anymore. there are various regulations for chinese language nationals to speculate distant places, quite land. you'll be able to desire to tug your head out of the sand. The adverse chinese language could prefer to return right here because of the fact there is greater social welfare than China. regardless of the undeniable fact that Australian government does not settle for adverse chinese language.

Why Feudal China lasted so long?????
What happened??????
How come 90% peasants for 2000 years? Workers making 25 cents?
Why China's Feudal Period Was So Long until the 19th century ??????

How come China missed the Missed the
Science-Age
Industrial-Age
Age of Discovery
Win a Nobel Prize in the sciences in 100-years.
and Not Invent the Modern Internet?????

From the earliest times down to the middle of the 19th century, Chinese society went through three stages
a) primitive society
b) slave society, and
c) feudal society.

The Xia dynasty ruled over a slave society.In the Shang period there was definitely a slave system, as inscriptions on oracle bones showed how slaves were used and ill-treated.During the Western Zhou(1066 - 771 BC)or Eastern Zhou(770 - 256 BC) Chinese society entered the feudal stage.
This social system was to last more than 2,500 years until it was shaken by foreign cannons during the Opium War.But the social system remained unchanged--it was essentially feudal though seeds of capitalism did appear.Com pared with Europe, where feudalism lasted about one thou sand years, China had a much longer feudal period. Many causes have been mentioned. Among them are the following:

#1. A predominant Nature-based, agriculture
farm-based economy. This was the economic foundation of the feudal system.
In short, 90% of the people were peasants living of the land.
Throughout the country the peasants, who made up over 90 percent of the population, produced and made nearly everything for themselves, and not for the market. They grew rice or wheat or corn, and they also raised pigs, goats and chickens, and grew vegetables. They grew cotton and hemp, and wove very coarse cloth with their handlooms.
They made their own tools, furniture and other things they used. In short, there were very few things that they had to buy from shops in town.

#2.A stable feudal emperor, dynastic (family-based akin to Kim family in North Korea in 21st. century) political system.
For about 2,000 years from the Qin to the end of the Qing dynasty, the country was governed more or less in the same way. There were modifications from dyansty to dynasty in the organization and workings of the government, but there were very 'few fundamental changes in the main structure of the political system. All powers were in the hands of the emperor alone, who was assisted by a group of ministers led by the prime minister.
Scholars who had passed certain examinations were given government posts, and some of them understood the problems and wishes of the people.In spite of its undemocratic nature and many faults, this political system seemed to suit the social conditions on the whole. Except when there were wars or great political upheavals, the country was ef- fectively governed and law and order were maintained.

#3. A highly-developed feudal culture, backward-looking cultures
of confucius/tao/buddha religions.
Chinese culture was highly developed in the feudal period. It played an important part in keeping the country unified, though it had such a large area and such a huge size of population;in maintaining the continuity of Chinese history; and in resisting the cultures of those nationalities which at one time or another ruled China.
These ideas were helpful to the stability of feudal rule. Confucianism valued ancient traditions, such as the institutions of the Western Zhou, and gave great respect to ancient sages like Yao, Shun, Yu, King Wen, King Wu and the Duke of Zhou, taking their rule as the model for all ages. In other words, it taught people to look backwards, Not forward.
This may have fostered the conser- vative tendency of the Chinese people.Besides Confucianism there were two other influential philoso- phies:Taoism and Buddhism. Taoism advocated an escape from social duties, and the enjoyment of freedom, quietude and peace.
There were of course other factors. One of them was China's lack of contact with the outside world. There was some foreign influence on Chinese culture. Bud- dhism, for instance, came from India. But foreign influence never changed the character of Chinese culture. Chinese society and culture developed along their own path until the outbreak of the Opium War in 1840.
