Communism is a dirty word in the U.S. but you wouldn't know that from the amount of Chinese goods bought there. Imagine back in the 80s if businessmen in the U.S. tried to push Soviet made goods on the population or worse yet export U.S. jobs to there. It seems like morals get thrown out the window by many countries when they don't feel immediately threatened and can make money off other people without the same rights and freedoms.

Of course you'll get some people that will argue that China isn't really communist or that trading with them will help promote freedom in China but then how come it seems to be a pick and choose when it comes to which countries get that kind of leeway? Even the news seems to do similar things. We hear far more about what goes on in Iran than we do in Saudi Arabia which is just as strict with their people.
