Sure China has large middle class, but that's mostly coastal, the interiour has nearly 600 million below the poverty line. The Chinese government works the 600 million to create the middle class of the 400 million. So i suppose how good it is in China depends on wether your one of the 400 million or 600 million.
thanks for the analagy! can i ask though is it done like that intentionally or is that just the way it sort of happened - i mean every country has their poverty line even here in the so called western countries.

As for their persecution of certain groups - i feel bad for those groups but arent they trying to overthrow the government or cause de-stability? and so they are persecuted but in response?


The things that come to those who wait are the things that are left by those who got there first !
