Do USMB members know that China is a Communist Country?

Would they have been able to send missiles into space as fast as they did without our technology being handed over to them as fast as we develop it?

And who was responsible for that that? Hint: It wasn't Bush.

they have hooked noses, love money, and shoot poor people for sport!

right?

From your mocking response, I'm assuming you don't believe the truth. Why on earth would you believe that Republican scientists would be more than 6%?

Come to think of it... I don't recall Mao ever establishing anything resembling real communism at all. From the 'New Democracy' speech to totalitarianism took about as long as aiming a rifle.

Good point, Quantum.

Are Republicans OK with building up a "totalitarian regime"?

I for one am not, but then I ceased being a republican sometime during Bushes terms so I guess I would not count.

Hey, was that you that made fun when I said the military uses the same technology that used in computer games? Should I go look it up? I think it was you. Then I posted links showing the military does indeed use the same technology. Because PS3 uses very high speed processors. You never came back for another bon mot. Why was that? Perhaps the "cleverness" wasn't? Hey, if that wasn't you, sorry, but if it was......

I pretty much abused every stupid "point" you made in that thread where you claimed that all computer chips are created equal.

You wrote:

Sending them military secrets is treason, buying their products is not.
See the difference?

Then I wrote:

Isn't it just as bad if you teach them the technology behind those secrets and make our military dependent on their materials?

Then you wrote:

We don't teach them, they have spies at our labs.
Again, see the difference?

Then I wrote:

Let me get this straight. We take poor Chinese peasants then suddenly, they are making iPods, transistors, liquid crystal displays and computers, but we don't "teach" them? Is that what you mean? Perhaps you could restate that?

Then you wrote:

They build consumer products not cruise missiles.
See the difference?

Then I wrote:

What is the difference between a computer chip used in an X-box and one used in a "cruise missile"?

Then you wrote:

Yes Deany, all computer chips are the same.
Go take your X-box and fire it towards Pashtun.

and

Deany, maybe you make your Xbox orbit Saturn, it has computer chips just like the Cassini probe?

Then I wrote:

OH MY GOD! YOU DON'T KNOW! THAT'S HILARIOUS!

VIDEO games have become increasingly realistic, especially those involving armed combat. America’s armed forces have even used video games as recruitment and training tools. But the desire to play games is not the reason why the United States Air Force recently issued a procurement request for 2,200 Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3) video-game consoles. It intends to link them up to build a supercomputer that will run Linux, a free, open-source operating system. It will be used for research, including the development of high-definition imaging systems for radar, and will cost around one-tenth as much as a conventional supercomputer. The air force has already built a smaller computer from a cluster of 336 PS3s.

I keep telling you guys to study some science, but NOOOOOO. Science is for elitists.

Do you know how stupid you guys just make yourselves look? Hmmm, I wonder if I could make this an entire thread. What a hoot!

====================

And then you stopped writing. Odd that.

I guess that's how "you showed me".

 

[rdean]

No snappy comeback Frankie baby?

You might want to do a search on "consumer electronics in military applications".

This is why you guys are no good at science. I've been telling you.

The thing that gets me is you have the nerve and gall to say, "I pretty much abused every stupid "point" you made in that thread where you claimed that all computer chips are created equal."

You lied about what I said, and proved you had no idea that a transistor is indeed a transistor. Collector, base and emitter. On and off. Zero and one. Digital. It's all the same. And it's not even rocket science, that is, until you start putting it all together. But that borders dangerously on "science".

According to CIA World Factbook, China's government is still considered a Communist State. However the source does note some economic changes since the 1970s (see below). A country's economic policy is only one part of it's government, so just because economic policies are changing doesn't necessarily mean the system of government has changed.

Population below poverty line:

note: 21.5 million rural population live below the official "absolute poverty" line (approximately $90 per year); and an additional 35.5 million rural population above that but below the official "low income" line (approximately $125 per year) (2007)

2.4 million jobs lost due to China from 2001-2008

The 2.4 million jobs lost/workers displaced nationwide since 2001 are distributed among all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, with the biggest losers, in numeric terms: California (370,000 jobs), Texas (193,700), New York (140,500), Illinois (105,500), Florida (101,600), Pennsylvania (95,700), North Carolina (95,100), Ohio (91,800), Georgia (78,100), and Massachusetts (72,800).

What is astounding in this report are the areas with the number one job losses from trade with China, the heart of those jobs of tomorrow we heard touted by politicians, is Silicon valley. Get that? It's not just India stealing the U.S. tech sector, it's China.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The computers, electronic equipment, and parts industries experienced the largest growth in trade deficits with China, leading with 627,700 (26%) of all jobs displaced between 2001 and 2008. As a result, the hardest hit Congressional districts were located in California and Texas, where remaining jobs in those industries are concentrated, and in North Carolina, which was hard hit by job displacement in a variety of manufacturing industries.

Unfair China Trade Costs Local Jobs

Other policies by the Chinese government also encourage exports. China extensively suppresses labor rights, which lowers production costs within China. An AFL-CIO study estimated that repression of labor rights by the Chinese government has lowered manufacturing wages of Chinese workers by 47% to 86% (AFL-CIO 2006, 138). China has also been shown to provide massive direct subsidization of export production in many key industries (see, e.g., Haley 2008, 2009). Finally, it maintains strict, non-tariff barriers to imports. As a result, China’s exports to the United States of $337.5 billion in 2008 were more than five times greater than U.S. exports to China, which totaled only $67.2 billion (Table 1). China’s trade surplus was responsible for 68.5% of the U.S. total non-oil trade deficit in 2008, making the China trade relationship this country’s most imbalanced by far.

Do the Right wing USMB members really defend this trade relation with China???????

Minimum wage in China is 88 to 142 dollars PER MONTH depending on the province. How do we fight that? Take a wage cut???????

Please explain how China's embracing of Capitalism makes them Communist?

They are totalitarian but ceased being a communist nation long ago.

You simply want to call them communist so you can point to them as an example of Communism working lol.
