Businesses exist to keep the customer happy.
You vote with your dollars.
Your dollars speak."

Hey, triffid and all others reading this...
       This was just in to the news media as of the posted time of this post:

Okay..........
       I don't think it's going to go well for the Chinese 'from here on out', as it can sometimes be put.   The whole world is beginning to feel the economic repercussions of these goings-on in the Chinese economy and stock market.

So I started this thread several years ago?   I was---then and now---allowing these greedy schmucks sink in a flood of worthless money from their economy.   It's just that the whole world's economies are interlinked and prone to wholesale deflation as a depression is looming---as it is, now.
       I'm not giving the Chinese anything positive for what non-existent altruistic feelings they probably never had.   The Communists can starve, and may just even do that in the future.

Good riddance,   Nobody needs them; even they don't need themselves.

Wow, that may be the most fucking ignorant statement I have ever actually heard... let them starve?. Thankfully we have democratic governments made of people much smarter than you which respect basic human rights to protect us from people like you because you my friend are a mental case.


You are everything that is wrong with this world, not corporations, not governments, not democracy nor communism, not consumerism. When you lose compassion, when you lose consideration for others then you are nothing more than an animal in my opinion because these traits are what defines us as intelligent beings.


I could say many things, things I might regret but know this that if we should ever come face to face and you spew this nonsensical BS it will not end well. We Canadians are very tolerant however we have limitations and you my friend are offside.

This is a timed computer, so I'll have to give you a response a piece at a time, but I'm not going to stop until I get to the end of all your strongly worded reply points.
If you want to engage in a sidebar conversation concurrently, that will slow me down, so I'll have to be more brief, and the effect of that may be to possibly be further misunderstood, by you or others.
       Here it is, for starters:
"Wow, that may be the most fucking ignorant statement I have ever actually heard... let them starve?"
       Alright, I admit that was a 'blanket statement.'   What I meant was the Chinese top tier of government.   They're bastards.   Do you have a local weekly newspaper that presents 'counterculture' material  that's also investigative in it's method of reporting?   I have available the Epoch Times in S.F.   They regularly expose the goings on of the Chinese Gov;t's misdeeds in detail.   I wasn't referring to the Chinese peasants because my Mom was related to them from the actually historical Huns.   Was I insulting myself and my Mom from that one point of view only?   No, I don't think so.
        Repeated:   The Chinese upper Party members are worthy of insult and no one else in that allegation above.   Follow me?    Look, I have more to say and I get hot having to defend myself like this...but think of this:   A have Asperger's syndrome and you're lucky not to have it.

Look.      The.      Description.     Of.       Asperger's.       Up.       On.       The.      'Web.       Yourself.


I was born with this condition and there's absolutely nothing I can do about it.    Other Members who read this can do the same.   It's a genetic condition I have to live with.   I can be out of line verbally and not just in this Forum.

We all have our problems in life and Asperger's is one with me.

Gee  lee i am so glad your all that is bad in the world.
Wait! you don't through people in prison because they complain or have the wrong religion.
your not playing brinkmanship over a few scraps of land.
your tanks did not crush protesters.
your doctors don't harvest organs for profit form unwilling convicts.
maybe your not such a bad guy.
