Here i thought this thread was about the Olympics in China......

Name a positive effect that boycotting the Olympics would have?

People will hate China more, don't go there anymore . China lose money of tourism especially Tibetians will lose money to tourism.

People will go to other countries then (Western probably) so China will lose money, Western Countries will gain my....

So far, I don't see any other positive effects..

That sounds good to me boycott China. Western countries make more money through tourism. Besides Great Wall of China. what is there in China? Buddhist Temples? lol.

BTW Chinese are forcing oil prices up.

Uh their culture? Thats what you generally go to see when you visit another country unless your a pompous ass going for the tourist spots which have no indication of the country's culture whatsoever. Anyway, China doesnt have that much tourism as you think. Other Western countries already have so much more because China restricts who comes in and out.

 

And how the hell is china forcing oil prices up?! I believe that would be OPEC and oil companies.

Both China and India are forcing oil prices up due to their high demand  for oil. both countries industries have grown 10 fold in the past 10 years where they become more industrialised. Less oil is left for the rest of the world due to increased demand and consumption in both China and India. Global oil prices are forced up due to limited supply of oil.
