it'd be better for them to rebuild as a free country, though

what would we do while we wait for that to happen though

thats at the fastest possible, like a 5 year move

plus, as long as they're communist, they will have increasing problems (housing situation for normal citizens is terrible there)

i had someone the other day try to tell me china didnt count as communist anymore... i was like wait what?

I guess it feels like a dick move to prop up the communist government for our own benefit

ya that is the problem i have always had with out relationship with china to begin with

we like getting the cheap stuff

people are really suffering there, and the usual way communism gets overthrown has been for it to collapse economically

but we just look away at what they are doing

trying to read up on that now, i think i see the arguements why people say they arent

anyways, gotta afk, unfortunately

they own all the land

ya i need some lunch

and im sure my rambling is annoying enough of you by now lol

sick day makes for a good chat day

auch

1.3 trillion is still more than i can find in my couch cushions

100 000 000 hundred million
