Then you must have instigated naive
idle Chinese  like the Falungung...who
dream of toppling the Beijing government.
You have wasted you time in China...you
don't know the Chinese people.

I have lived for short periods and travelled
extensively all over China during the last
15 years,...most peasants and Chinese
in cities I met...were apolitical.

They were more interested in getting good
jobs in the city...starting business in
joint venture with foreign investors...
selling their products overseas...studying
overseas to get a good education....
Peasants in villages were interested in
farming practices in the USA, giving
an education to their children...learning
English....
All of them knew well....getting into politics will
not advance their career nor help their business,
nor improve the output in their farms.
They have no time to waste on politics.
