To clear the Record, your hatred of all things foreign is obvious.
My login name is Laowai. It is chinese and means in a literal translation; "Respected Outsider".
Guess What?
I am Canadian.
I am White. I think that information may be important to you.
Because I post from China and critique Canada, you just assumed I was Chinese. And then the bile of racism spilled forth in your posts.
If you have never been to China, you haven't a clue what it is really like here. Capitalism is the norm. Small businesses thrive. The GDP averages above 9 per cent per year. Opportunities abound for those willing to seize them. The standard of living is increasing for a huge segment of the population.
The internet is available at netbars here to anyone who has the equivalent of a dime. People can read and be exposed online
to the same kind of information that is readily available to Canadians. Websites I routinely couldn't view in Canada are easily accessed here.
Your notion of what constitutes freedom is very limited.
I leave you with this wisdom:
Salutation
O generation of the thoroughly smug
and thoroughly uncomfortable,
I have seen fishermen picnicking in the sun,
I have seen them with untidy families,
I have seen their smiles full of teeth
and heard ungainly laughter.
And I am happier than you are,
And they were happier than I am;
And the fish swim in the lake
and do not even own clothing.
-- Ezra Pound
