Heh, click here ––-> "300 Irate Chinese Taxi Drivers"
There's irony, "protest against illegal taxi competition in China" ... ... and more irony, there's "300" of 'em. Tough titty ...

Quoted:
What on Earth would the Chinese know about honest competition? They are a nation of theives, pure and simple. The abuse of international property rights agreements is promoted at the highest levels of government. Trade war now. your generalization makes you sound so educated 
if you characterize all the chinese by that shitty government then maybe we should consider ourselves as all obamalovers |

if you characterize all the chinese by that shitty government then maybe we should consider ourselves as all obamalovers How should I "educate" myself? With another post-graduate degree that relates to the topic at hand? Another subscription to Forbes? More hours of listening to Bloomberg, WSJ? More direct participation in the market? More friends with an ownership stake in firms that "compete" with China? Or, by "educate" do you mean to say that I should be a bit more sensitive to the plight of communist subjects/peasants who languish under an abusive, intolerant government that is involved in revisionism, theft, ethnic cleansing, religious intolerance, employs slave labor, pollutes with absolute abandon, engages in FORCED abortion, keeps political dissidents, has no regard for international patent protection standards, cheats in fucking sporting events and spies on us (not to mention the generals that like to talk about throwing a nuke our way)? My meaning was perfectly clear. I shouldn't need to endlessly qualify every statement I make in this world - regardless of how soft and sensitive the PC minded are or how hungry they are to be offended. Somewhere, among every evil facist/totalitarian system this world has ever known there is a person or group of people who are good and who are hurting. We know. We get it. It is truly romantic and the "acid mines" are a hard, hard place. Bottom line, I suggest that you shed those tears for hardworking Americans who are at the very forefront of technical innovation in the global market, invest their money and their time only to find that it is stolen from them by thieves - China, in this specific instance. Trade war now. |

I used to work for a company that makes advanced telecommunications equipment. The company worked very hard with the Chinese government getting deals done, selling fiber optic terminals to the Chinese. Yes they were paid well, but about two years later all the contracts they had in Latin America started getting canceled. Turns out the Chinese were now selling a product that had astonishingly similar specs to the equipment that my company had sold them. The company got a hold of some of the Chinese made equipment, and guess what, as it was powered up, and coming online, the company logo and boot up sequence was plain as day. For an even bigger kick in the teeth, the company I worked for, used the company name as the default userid, and password on newly manufactured equipment. The team that got the Chinese gear in and set up were not amused when typing our companies name for userid and password got them logged in. The Chinese weren't even concerned enough to change the login or bootup splash screens, which included several lines about the software being property of my company.
This was all done with the help of the Chinese Government, and a "privately owned" Chinese company. |

The Chinese even screwed the Russians by knocking off copies of their fighter planes. |

Weren't we just told not too long ago that soon the Chinese and Russians will work together to "regulate" the global economy? Laughable... |
