I think a great deal of the thinking, in the past and even still today among the right, was that capitalism would somehow save China's soul. It's a belief that kind of hangs out in the back of the mind and will not stand up to any scrutiny, because it's ridiculous and insulting to everyone involved. As if Louis Vuitton bags and Coca-cola not only are enough to totally transform a person, but also that these kind of consumer items represent the height and glory of the West.
