Felt that they had no choice but to merge, this is the only chance they have against China.

IS ANYONE PAYING ATTENTION?

China is a paper tiger. When it institutes human, civil, labor and environmental rights, it will fracture and cease to exist as a unified nation.

Oh it is? So the EU wont prevent price dumping? It is one Chinese company that is state owned and funded with tons of subsidies.. so..

And what is it to you anyways? GE is the only real American company, and that is even more pathetic.

You really don't see the problems of implementing rights where none were recognized, late in the development game even? Disaster. Look what it did to the US and we were still agrarian for the most part. China will fracture, its days are numbered by breaths taken beneath a tyrant.

In the East we dont think about rights like Westerners do.....You do understand this right?

This thing you consider to be a fatal flaw only is such if it is.

YOU SEE?

In the West, we didn't use to either. Human nature draws us to freedom, liberation is inevitable and will be devastating for near totalitarian regimes.

Believing China can maintain perpetual tyranny is stupid. It's even more stupid to believe such based on "they like tyranny". What are you, 5 years old?

Nothing is forever but Obama would have killed for Putins approval numbers, and Nixon was completely wrong about China.

I dont know how educated or not you are, but this statement of mine should register with you if you are.

The truth? The Truth is that the chinese company is state owned and funded. The western companies are not. The EU and US will protect their interests in needed.

I'm a lot more educated than you, I guarantee that. I also guarantee China will not maintain perpetual tyranny. Lastly, I can guarantee everyone wants to be free.
