You lost me at the 2nd amendment nuttery. I won't bury you though because I agree with your overall sentiment. Having known personally people who have been to and worked briefly in China, I can say with confidence that it is, indeed, a hell hole.Try and imagine air pollution so bad that just walking down the street a few blocks in the city results in a palpable residue left on all exposed clothing and skin. Now imagine living in and breathing that everyday as you travel to and from the sweatshop you work in for just dollars a day if you're lucky. No thanks.
