UPSETTING THE BALANCE


BANZAI7 NEWS--We know how to run our internet, thank you very much, and we don't need lessons from you.

That was the message Chinese authorities sent Saturday in response to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's harsh criticism of the regime's internet censorship and repressive human rights policies. A representative of the Communist government said Clinton was being "disrespectful" when she urged U.S. companies to stand up to internet censorship in authoritarian countries like China.

WB7: Here is the real question.

You like buying cheap goods made in China right? Everything you touch seems to be made in Chinese factories employing low wage workers willing to work in conditions American unemployed workers would find acceptable only in their worst nightmares.

Factories with toxic emission standards far below those mandated in the US.

You liked borrowing cheap money provided by China to buy those cheap Chinese goods. Money financing the six flat screen TV sets in your household. Money that could have been used to help build a hospital in Tibet or improved living conditions for construction workers in Shanghai.

Now why do you want to stick your big nose in China's internal affairs to screw up the delicate balance of the universe?

Innovative hypocracy, that is what we are seeing.
