Re: Chinese peasant anger

This is just the tip of the iceburg.  After WTO, the reaction will be massive.
This report as usual distorts the situationby trying to focus the bureacracy as
the enemy, a neoliberal spin.   The bureaucracy is not the enemy, the market is.
  We are now reaching the stage where ideological errors of the pro-market
economy reformers are being exposed by undeniable reality. The time of abstract
debate has passed.  All of China will wake up to the fact that the "free market"
is the true enemy of the people.
