Many Chinese, like Americans, want to make their home and the world a better place

How about respecting human rights? That would be a start.

Technology can help for some things, but past a certain point, "making the world a better place" also imply policy changes.



And what I'm saying is, my government doesn't respect human rights, but I as a citizen do. You're throwing the baby out with the bathwater arguing private US business shouldn't work with anyone in China because they must all be human rights abusers. /s


You seriously think this is about making the world a better place?

It's about money. Private businesses don't care about Chinese citizens. They care about cold hard cash.

Now, am I saying private US businesses shouldn't work with anyone in China? Not really. All I'm sayng is: at the end of the day, technology can only do so much. Eventually, policy must change also and this is valid for any country, including the US.
