China, A Communist Nation

[Zlaxer]

Back to China -

Not feeling comfortable with the Chinese businesses buying up so much media in Hollywood.....China is not our friend, they're nobody's friend - not even their own citizens.....they've openly stated that they're trying to "rebrand" the Chinese government in the eyes of the world.....

FUCK THE PRC

To be fair and honest there were many Irish immigrants (and Germans) who freely signed up to fight for the North.

The Affordable Care Act. I refuse to call it Obomacare like the media does. Sounds silly.

It's a crap deal... written by lobbyists to protect the profits of Big Health Insurance...
The problem is that health care is not well managed by private entities... it's not well managed by public ones either but the state needs to at least oversee the process with some authority or else the commoners will be milked for every last penny and then left to die in squalor.
Obamacare was a bad attempt at a compromise that Big Insurance had too much of a hand in writing up.

I doubt China would need to slip paper envelopes to Hollywood execs to rebrand China... Behind the Hollywood liberal actors and directors, there lie businesses simply wanting to make more money. China's a huge market simply = Make movies the Chinese would like to watch. So, they're already doing it, without needing Chinese companies actually taking over their studios.

And hell, Hollywood gets paid... at the end that's Americans making dollars off of the Chinese, just like most of your movies and TV shows have gotten sold to Europe like nobody's business for several decades. Capitalism's working as intended.
