Oh please! China is about as communist as my left buttock, in fact other than a few hippie communes in the northwest in the 60s I don't think anyone has ever tried to have an actual communist state. What China was and to a point is, which was one of the reasons for the great Sino/Soviet split when the USSR divorced itself from his example was a variation on Stalinism, which is where a handful at the top live like Gods while the people do without. I know its hard after being pounded with propaganda to this very day (notice how anything the right doesn't like like healthcare for the poor is labeled 'socialist' like that is the same as kiddie fiddler?) but its easy enough to tell the difference as i sincerely doubt "the people' were asking for The Holodomor, the great purges, or to eat bark in NK while dear leader's fatass kid ate all the cookies. As for why China is so polluted its because they don't care how the worker's live (which again is the opposite of how Karl Marx designed communism) as long as they can roll around in cash while building up their military. it reminds me of old Joe and his 'five year plans" as by the end of those he had built some seriously pollution monsters, the only non Chinese city in the top 10 most polluted is an old Joe era chemical factory town in Russia.

As for TFA here is a perfect example of why the FDA and EPA need real teeth instead of letting the right gut what little regulations we have because its pretty obvious without the threat of millions in fines and a loss of their business most corps won't give a fuck about anything but the bottom line. of course the bitch is it never seems to fail that no matter how many times we think we've closed the loopholes the little bastards just get smarter, look at how many superfund sites we ended up stuck with because they set up some shell corp to take the fall. I'm seeing the same thing happen in my own state with the NG frakking and wildcatters as they've set up shell corps that rent everything from the tools to the office furniture to be the "face' company that just gets burned if bills pile up or they get hit with fines and then they can just start another shell corp, rent the gear again, and they are right back in business. We really need to make a law so these CxOs are held responsible for the damage their companies cause so they can't just 'pull an Enron' and walk away with the cash while we get stuck with the bills.

For a good example playing out now look how the airlines are gonna end up dumping their retirement accounts onto the US taxpayer while the CxOs bail with golden parachutes. they got to gamble with the funds and when things went pop they get to say "tough shit buh bye" and cash out, its completely fucked and rewards sociopaths and if we don't do something about it we'll have no choice but to become socialist because the majority of those with company run retirement accounts are libel to find nothing but a picture of the CEO snorting coke off some 19 year old hooker in their nest eggs they've worked their whole lives for.
