Tom s + 5 TF May 18, 2019 Lol...u got me. Nothing is as it seems right? Conspiracy is all around. You've been reading too many Tom Clancy novels I think. I only heard of this deep state thing around the time Trump got elected and I think he mentioned it a few times and as a result his supporters believe him and it has caught on probably with the exact same percentage as there are Trump supporters. Guess it's like dark matter, everyone knows it's there but no one has any proof of it. But that's the thing, how can you ultimately prove something DOES NOT exist? No evidence would ever be enough for someone that believes it to be true. It's like people that think Elvis is still alive or the Loch Ness monster exists. 2 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, Germany and Japan were not allowed to have their own armies, and we weren't the only ones that were in on that decision.

We all know how THAT turned out.....

They stole most of what they have from the US and it's allies. If they hadn't stolen that tech they wouldn't be the superpower they are now, albeit a minor superpower at best. China's only real advantage is the number of troops they can put on the ground in a hurry, as for their tech, they are mostly on the bottom of the totem pole.... On 5/13/2019 at 10:57 PM, Bhimsen Pachawry said: Considering all this, it is really funny that you claim USA taught a lot of things to China. USA provoked China by rising people via Church and NGOs to rebel against China in 1989 Tianamen square. So, USA helping China never was a reality. It was more or less like USA troubling China and other countries. We had nothing to do with Tienanmen square, those were college students trying to gain some freedom from Communism, one of the most oppressive government types on the planet today... No one can be held accountable for running over unarmed students with tanks, or for anything else they have done, or are doing now to their people. On 5/13/2019 at 10:57 PM, Bhimsen Pachawry said: You are misunderstanding about pace of growth. Technology is mainly about knowledge, not economy. So, as long as there is basic quantity of resource and brain power, the technology can be made quickly. The only reason why USA economy is big is because it fooled Arabs into giving free oil in petrodollar deal in return for military support to spreading Islam. Wow, I didn't know we were that chummy with the Middle East. I was alive when they decided to cut us off, twice they made life difficult for us. They also use our protection to keep themselves safe and secure On 5/13/2019 at 10:57 PM, Bhimsen Pachawry said: In technology terms, other countries also could develop at reasonably fast pace on their own. As long as you can show me which technology from USA was given to China, I will not be convinced that Chinese growth was influenced by USA. The key to development is technology advancement and any other superficiality is not important. The point you are missing is that people that are oppressed by their governments tend to be less creative, they are spending so much of their lives in fear, they have to try to keep the discoveries in line with the party thinking. If they discover anything that is out of line with the expectations the government in power will just bury their heads in the sand and just twist anything to their philosophy, regardless of the truth.That is why they are technologically deficient compared to the "free" countries around the world.  On 5/13/2019 at 10:57 PM, Bhimsen Pachawry said: I am not pimping for China.

You are just angry because you live in the LARGEST third world country on earth. Can't even keep the power on all day, every day.  I know about a company that came over there just over a decade ago and built a plant to manufacture tools for the machining industry. The quality was so horrible that the rest of the civilized world told that company that if they kept sending this garbage over here they would lose all the business. So what did they do with that manufacturing facility? They used it to make tools for the East, namely China. Those people over there wouldn't know good quality if it had crawled up their butts and died. Our shops were used to tools made in USA, Germany, Japan. And you really don't believe the US had something to do with the quality that comes from Japan and Germany? We rebuilt those countries And on another point, if India is so great, why do your people come over here to get a decent education? Or jobs? Or to escape the hell in India? You are an angry, uninformed man. India will come into it's own right eventually, just give it time..... 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delusional - the propaganda machine worked too well on you. University entry in China is extremely competitive; their schools are filled with the best of the best. Just like their Olympic program, you can put them all on a brutally hard training program and just discard anyone who doesn't hold up. Unless you are a total racist you would understand that a population of ~1.4 billion is going to produce a lot more exceptional people (geniuses, athletes, artists) than a population of 327 million. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You will appreciate that, if the organ is the heart or both lungs, then the Falun candidate has a problem surviving being an unwilling donor. To the Communists, a donor prisoner is like a donor car; you keep it around out back for spare parts, and take them out as needed. Nice people, those "gainers of knowledge." Name your part; those "doctors" will slice away. All yours for a fee. The prisoner? Hey, there's a ditch out back for that guy. Who cares about him? https://www.theepochtimes.com/incriminating-phone-calls-doctors-admit-to-live-harvesting-of-falun-dafa-adherents-organs-in-china_2868017.html? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, it will likely not.  India is going to be mired in mendacity, bureaucracy, and mediocrity for a very long time. To start to right that ship, first India needs to get a grip on its population, which it is in paralysis about. The Chinese Communists were able to do that with the draconian "one child" policy, coupled with other authoritarian measures. The Indian Government cannot even control honor killings, slavery, the criminal daquoti, or the population using toilets instead of pooping in public on the ground. India is not going anywhere; it will remain a stagnant morass for a long time to come. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
