[quote=APAULT,251914]When I was at university studying politics in the late 60's I read a book called 'In a Few Hands' by Kefaufer (or a similar name). He wrote convincingly of how the wealthy controlled each nation's industry and either directly or indirectly the governments. China is no different in that the wealthy will protect their own interests, whoever they are. In societies where a non-wealthy group gains control, it typically gains wealth. This appears to have happened in China. There are many reasons why this should be - party members are higher educated, had more knowledge on how to run businesses and all importantly they have the contacts. This is an analysis of what seems to happen around the world. Is it right that this should happen, or is it wrong? You have to decide for yourself[/quote]
