Experts: US, China democracy different

WASHINGTON: China has a democracy different from that of the United States, a difference that should be encouraged and acknowledged, US China experts said.

"The US should not tell China what to do," said Yawei Liu, director of the China Program of the Carter Center.

Bruce Dickson, professor of political science and international affairs at George Washington University, stated that outside pressure will not affect the pace of change in China.

They were speaking on Friday at the congressional-executive hearing on China's democracy over the past three decades and its implications for the US.

China has experimented with elections for villages, townships, counties and even high levels of government and the Communist Party of China (CPC).

Scholars at the hearing also highlighted what they thought were shortfalls in China at present.

Its political system still dictates that the State operates as the executor of decisions made by the CPC, Li said.

"If democracy is an event, China has not made breakthroughs. If it is a process, it is happening in China," Li said.

Yet no one seems to care

Yet no one seems to care that the U.S. has to crawl on their knees with a tin cup in hand to a communist country.
We at one point in time detested communism and fought it,now it seems we cuddle up to it and slowly are being steered in that direction.
What the U.S. empire does in "spreading democracy" is to first use force on those not willing,second set up a government that can easily control the people...
This country use to elect statesmen and representatives,now the majority are various species of parasites.
