Capitalism Depends on the Survival of Democracy
World | Tuesday, July 04, 2023

It’s no coincidence that democratic countries with capitalist systems typically have the highest quality of life, standard of living, economic productivity per capita, life expectancy and educational standards. Democratic systems also tend to have the lowest levels of corruption. In many countries, however, democracy is currently being challenged, which may have the potential to bring about harsh consequences.

Promising Autonomy, China Has Turned Hong Kong into China
World | Monday, July 18, 2022

On January 1, 1997, Hong Kong, effectively seized by Great Britain in war a century before, reverted to Chinese rule. Only recently liberated from the madness of Mao Zedong's rule, Beijing promised to preserve Hong Kong's "separate system" for 50 years. Alas, the People's Republic of China (PRC) terminated the political regime based on historic British liberties 27 years early, with passage of the National Security Law in June 2020. The PRC's increasingly repressive Xi Jinping government created a police state in the Special Administrative Region as suffocating as that on the mainland. read more...

The potential for conflict is growing.”

U.S. | Monday, December 20, 2021

Relations between the U.S. and China took a precipitous dive during the Trump administration and that trajectory unexpectedly continued after President Joe Biden took over.
