...on WalMart products alone his country's making hand over fist $$$... Allow me to be perhaps not the first to point out that the takeover of Hong Kong by China will have more affect than even the Chinese yet realize.
Hong Kong will affect China much more than China will affect Hong Kong.
Capitalism works. Even China knows it.

I was certain that the takeover of Hong Kong would lead to a quick and total destruction of their largely free economy and press. I was wrong, it hasn't happened, at least not nearly to the extent that I expected.
Don't quite understand why not, but it is a good sign in a country where signs of change are hard to come by.
