"Ms. Cheng was arrested on what was supposed to have been her wedding day last fall for sending a single sarcastic Twitter message that included the words “charge, angry youth.” The government, lacking a sense of humor, sentenced her to a year in labor camp."
We freely import mass quantities of cheap, disposable junk from China that fills our oceans and dumps. We buy these products for not much more than the slave labor rates that China pays their people thus never giving companies using American employees a chance to compete. Then we borrow money whenever we want so we can keep on buying these cheap products which keeps the vicious cycle of human rights violations, garbage pollution and American unemployment right in place.
That's nice.
