I used to use Network Solutions at $35 a year, 2 year minimum.
Then I used Register.com for $20 a year.
Then I use GoDaddy for $8.95 a year.
Now I use Dynadot.com. Good control panel. $7.99 a year. They take Paypal too.
Ok, if you are a great fan of China that's fine. Your post sounded pretty anti-China however.
Well slavery has a very specific meaning. It is when one person owns another person. The owner can sell the other person for money. It means a person is a piece of property. Perhaps you should choose a different word. We can all agree that a Chinese peasant has less rights and freedoms than an American citizen. However, I take issue when you call a Chinese peasant a slave, because that is inaccurate.
China is trying to do something good, build sustainable cities. It is something all countries in the world should be doing. The world is running out of oil and resources. China should be praised for taking this action, not bashed.
The freedom and fairness experienced by the average Chinese citizen is increasing, with the development of their economy. I know several Chinese citizens and have spent many months there on business trips. There is an incredible sense of optimism in the country. Certainly nobody I met felt they were "brutally oppressed". You can take my anecdotal evidence for what it's worth.
And by the way, can you provide a reference that China has a "history of more slaves than the West ever had". As far as I can tell from Wikipedia, slavery did exist in China, but never even close to the scale it was practiced in the West.
