Half the stuff that business crooks have pulled over here, have gotten the same sort of people shot in China. I think the Chinese are smarter about corruption than we are; they have their peccadillos, but when they ahd an Enron-style scandal, the guilty got life in prison or the death penalty.
That's only if they feel the need for publicity purposes, when they tick off the wrong people, or someone fails to respond to blackmail. China, like many East Asian nations, prefer selective enforcement as a tool. That's why though corruption and prostitution etc..have very harsh penalties they are rarely enforced and is rampant even though the Chicom govt knows who's doing it and when. Read Eamonn Fingleton's IN THE JAWS OF THE DRAGON, it goes into quite a bit of detail on those societies' use of selective-enforcement, and how many East Asian nations achieved their successful industrial/economic growth.
