win096 ::: Favorites Democracy 08: Democracy: 1. doesn't bring higher GDP or better living standards, 2. doesn't stop the corruption (all western democractic countries have corruptions), 3. doesn't bring a better harmony society (Taiwan is obviously example), 4. doesn't bring international peace (both democratic Uunited States and Nazi Germany have invaded foreign countries). Exactly how good is this "democracy"??? 07-10-22 14:56:56 __________________________________________________
gfantasy1 ::: Favorites 中國不適合搞民主選舉，你以爲選班長啊？幾十個人我都認識，中國10幾億，選誰不是很盲目的嗎？難道就聼聼候選人的演講看看他的生平就行嗎？那科學嘛？讓中國搞民主的不是白癡就是反共的。 07-10-22 13:52:59 __________________________________________________
win096 ::: Favorites Democracy 07: In another words, exactly what good is the "democracy"? What has the "democracy" brought to the people in Taiwan? better living standards? higher GDP and family income? more harmony society? less crime rate? less corruption? stronger government? ... exactly what has this so called "democracy" bought to the people in Taiwan? 07-10-22 10:29:55 __________________________________________________
win096 ::: Favorites Democracy 06: Exactly how good the Democracy is? Well, as US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and British news media suggested in 2005, it is good when the super power wants to push its national interests by putting some "moral content" on the face of their foreign policy. It was also good in 1776 when Thomas Jefferson wrote "All men are created equal," in American "Declaration of Independence" while he owned hundreds of slaves to the day he died. 07-10-22 04:55:48 __________________________________________________
win096 ::: Favorites Democracy 05: Democracy didn't bring wealth to Western power nations either. The wealth of Western powers has started with the industrial revolution in 18 century that didn't happen in other part of the world, and then followed by military power, colonialism, imperialism, capitalism, global trading, and unfair trading practice. This is how Western Powers have accumulated their wealth. Just like many strong wealthy empires in history, none of them got their wealth through "Democracy" 07-10-22 04:55:34 __________________________________________________
win096 ::: Favorites Democracy 04: Democracy cannot ensure the world peace either. People in Germany "democratically" voted Nazi Party the parliament majority and appointed Adolf Hilter "Fuhrer und Reichskanzier" in 1934. That's how the World War II and holocaust got started. George Bush got US people overwhelmingly supported him to invade Iraq in 2003, and four years later over 600,000 Iraqi civilians died. Obviously there is no connection between Peace and Democracy. 07-10-22 04:55:02 __________________________________________________
win096 ::: Favorites Democracy 03: Toynbee "... Both China and India have huge population and both are miserably poverty-stricken and ruined from the war, now one starts with Communism, another Democracy..." After 55 years today, China is #1 in Foreign Reserves in the world (Japan #2). #2 in GDP (next to US), #2 in Export (next to Germany), #3 in Import (next to US, Germany), India is still eating dust and far behind. Most academics believe that it is the "Democracy" drags India behind. 07-10-22 04:54:49 __________________________________________________
win096 ::: Favorites Democracy 02: But the question is: Exactly how good the Democracy is? George Bush visited and praised India last year as the oldest democracy in Asia and the biggest democracy in the world. What exactly how good is the "oldest" and "biggest" Democracy is? British historian Arnold Toynbee said at the end of World War II during the hot debate between the communism and democracy "Let's don't argue, just wait for 50 years to see the two examples in front of us: Both China and India 07-10-22 04:54:33 __________________________________________________
win096 ::: Favorites Democracy 01: In May, 2005 when Condoleezza Rice made the first EU visit as Secretary of State in Bush's second term. British news media criticized her ruthless in pushing US interests and talking without embarrassment about exporting Freedom and Democracy. Rice responded "There cannot be an absence of moral content of American foreign policy," she said "Europeans giggle at this, but we are not European, we are American, and we have different principles." 07-10-22 04:54:03 __________________________________________________
