    Just to flesh out this picture a little from what I understand, the large population centers of China, like Beijing, even though they are in a communist country are very free market in practice. So for someone living there, it probably doesn't feel like the oppressive communist country that it is and would feel like out in the country. That's what I've heard from people who've been there. I haven't been myself.

    Listen to her talking about the organization with the media and how all kids get media supervision...




    ETA: Talks about a lot of the support coming from the "Giffords people". Southwest Airlines donated flights. NEA (teachers unions) also behind a lot of the organization/support.

    speaking of China...we have this little gem! Chinese space stationed is abandoned and will reenter the earths atmosphere soon. Supposedly it has some kind of nuclear reactor on board. If it lands in my back yard, I will try to post pictures.

    Have to be careful citing the history of a country as well, lest during a rant about how free America is, someone brings up the history of slavery in America and shoots your rant through the face.

    Yeah, like we invented slavery. By the way, slavery still exists in the world.

    Of course we didn't of course it does. That's not the point I was making though, nor is it related. I'll spell it out. Saying, "You're dumb for having an opinion in your country because of X terrible thing that happened at some point in history." is a completely invalid argument because it can be made about every country, society, etc of people from the beginning of time, all the way through the end of time.
