So you think the chinese goverment really is spending very large resources censoring the internet just becase they don't want their pepole to read information from uncertain sources? They are sencoring it so that pepole won't find out about what they've done in the past! China does not even have free elections!
The funny thing is, the only reason the american right doesn't hate China above anything else (like before) is because their large corporations are now able to exploit the chineese market and cheap labour. Suddenly, human rights and weapons of mass destruction doesn't mean shit to the american right, well, except for in Irak which they're not making money from yet... (well, I guess they will soon unless the country falls apart completely).
If China would suddenly stop cooperating with the US, you can be sure that FhoaxNews would be reporing about the lack of human rights in China 24/7.

Unless you invested some in rare metals for example. :)
I wouldn't really call China either a socialism or communism in practice anymore. It just seems like pure capitalism nowadays.
