Chinese MRE

[erad67]

If I understand the Chinese notion of business well, I'm pretty sure that if we could find the factory and talk with the boss/sales person, they would sell us a full container of those MRE's for maybe $1.00 each!

Maybe, but the company could be owned by the military, or a former general. Even so, they may still sell. Anyone want to try?

I see a lot of "red Chinese" and "commie" talk about them. Don't confuse today's China with the China of 20 or even 10 years ago. And don't confuse Chinese communism with Soviet communism. Yes, the government is communist, but that doesn't mean there isn't capitalism going on. Oh, and they never have stopped wanting Formosa/Taiwan. They claim it is a renegade province. I think Taiwan still claims it is the rightful government of all China, so even they (officially) think they are part of China.

I think you're right: if Taiwan is not invaded by China before the next 3000 years China will still be claiming it a part of the country, whoever rules it, a communist, a businessman or an emperor.

Don't forget those guys where already doing exports to the Roman empire 2000 years ago and one Roman emperor had to invent "protectionism" because of the importation of Chinese goods (silk) that were ruining the local economy.
China is China, only the flag color changes
