Pause, while the smoke clears


Republican Democracy vs. Authoritarianism: http://billroggio.com/.
Rural Unrest in China: "China has some serious problems brewing. They have a largely rural population that works as subsistence farmers while the urban workers in South East China that work in the factories enjoy much better education and living conditions as well as higher wages and in general a better lifestyle. Urban China is exploiting Rural China and there is a mass migration to the cities.

From a historical context, we underwent the mass urban migration around the turn of the century when the Industrial Revolution caught up with our agricultural society. We had a population in the tens of Millions and it still was uneasy. Our mass urbanization led to labor unions and unrest as well as resentment of Capitalism and the Capitalist pigs that kept the common worker down. Industrialization and Urbanization as well as worker abuses led to this philosopher guy who thought there was a better way. Someone named Marx I think. Perhaps the answer to China's urbanization, unrest, and industrialization that is causing all the repression is to implement that guy Marx's ideas and get rid of the Capitalist Pigs that run everything... wait... damn. Well, it was worth a thought."
Freedom of choice and Accuracy in voting is a winning combination. I hope.
