Last night I saw a very interesting interview by Charlie Rose on PBS. He talked to David Barboza, the Shanghai correspondent for the New York Times, and it was a fascinating glimpse into post-Mao, post-Communist China. You can catch the interview at http://www.charlierose.com/ I'm not sure that Chinese capitalism is an improvement over the People's Revolution.
You will have to watch the program and decide for yourself.
