Yahoo in China Doublespeak
Well in fact, the US also double-speaks. The land of the free has been spying on its own people ever since the ‘war on terrorism’ began (if not before, but we don’t know that). So all this fuss about China spying on its own people is insincere. We agree that the state has no right to imprison its own citizens for political reasons. So we condemn China flatly for doing this. But then, the communists in the US were not treated kindly either.

We join in the condemnation of Yahoo, collaborating with China arresting and imprisoning political dissidents. It’s the old greed again. Money is more important than people. Yahoo can make more money if they comply with the Chinese government. So there you have it. Capitalism is a system based on greed. Socialism is based on envy. They will always be at logger-heads.
