.. in general, including the "Chinese bureaucratic capitalist party," what Kenneth Lieberman calls China instead of communists in an interview with the NY Times in this
article about China's "free market" strategy in relation to the US.
Lieberman, discussing the CNOOC bid for Unocal (and not how to stop corporatist fascism as I am), also added that China's societal and economic structure "has nothing really to do with Communism." (And the WTO really has nothing to do with regulating the "free market" or else we would be able to buy CNOOC in a hostile takeover -- Bushco has no problem selling off American strategic assets though...)
I include China with the unsavory company of GW Bush and Al Qaeda because of their history of committing atrocities (Tibet, Tiananmen Square, etc.) for the sake of maintaining power for the economic elite.

Does Lieberman's description of China sound familiar to say, America, the neo-cons, and an inbred Texan who can't speak his native tongue (i.e. "nucular") but who currently represents this gauntlet of economic totalitarianism that runs the world? How do you stop this bastardization of democracy in America at the hands of ultra-rich neo-fascist theocrats, who are strikingly similar to the Taliban and the Chinese in their dealings?
1) Defeat them with better ideas. The truth rings true. For me, the true story of Jesus and his work for poor people and yes, the hidden history of his work to help women (thus the interest in the conspiracy theories surrounding "The Da Vinci Code.")
It's the ideas stupid is what I say.
And don't get me started on the Gnostics and how modern-day christianity is NOT what Jesus originally taught. If We the People can tell them to stop bastardizing our heroes' history, then maybe the real good of that man can be revealed and realized, for the enrichment of mankind.
2)Decentralize. If we the people can come up with successful businesses with a central planning mechanism, i.e. our political party, we can take the power from the corporatist fascists.
I suggest we move on this economic theory, which I didn't come up with but which I extrapolated from the long-standing theory of future power sources, per the Worldwatch Institute:
They say the future power plants will be run on hydrogen, (as well as automobiles). The products are already out there: there are city blocks running on hydrogen fuel-cell generators.
My idea is to create a hybrid home and a New Deal to promote it.
These small businesses, that resell the smaller home fuel-cell generators (also currently available from GE amongst others) and that resells solar panels, which have made leaps and bounds since its inception, could do for homes what Toyota and Honda did for automobiles. So why don't the Dems push for another New Deal for Hybrid Homes to destroy the terrorists at the source: the oil and its revenues?
The hybrid home system would work much like the hybrid car system: when the solar panels cannot charge the batteries due to lack of sunlight, then the fuel-cell generator kicks in, generating minimal environmental emissions. This is the off the grid option.
In many states, the excess power generated from solar panels can be sold back to the power grid.. the solar/ grid hybrid is the California model right now.
So, what say you? Why not push hybrid home systems as a business model to defeat Big Oil and all its nasty socio-economic consequences?
