Please don't make such ignorant parallels between the Chinese and American governements. They are NOTHING alike. The US government has its flaws, to be sure, but you must have been truly blind during you visit to China to think it is in any way comparable.
Kent State and Tiananmen? Kent State was an acknowledged tragedy in this country, and you can read about it in any history textbook. To this day, any talk of the hundreds or thousands gunned down at Tiananmen is strictly verboten.
And yes, there is corruption in the US. Our corrupt officials are elected, theirs are not. There is a fundamental difference.
