Between your cheerleading Team Bush stealing powers and abrogating freedoms, we know you are pro-authoritarian government beyond your defense of China Rick.

But could you post your working definition of Capitalism? Or at least explain how the Chinese government having either total or partial ownership in virtually all industries as well sets prices across the board, is Capitalism. nothing in China is made or sold without some government intervention, whether through official party line or innate corruption.

And artificially suppressing the Yuan against the Dollar isn't really such a good example of Capitalism.
