家园 【文摘】why 毛被越来越多的年轻人接受的问题。

quoted from Blahblah Da Xia--中国现在还没能摆脱一个非常病态的社会,只要社会仍然在这种轨迹上走下去,一个太祖骂臭了,千万个太祖站起来。

如果我们的社会里老是有这种上层蔑视下层生命权利的事情发生,屡屡发生以暴易暴,也就不奇怪了,而每到历史关口,我们这个民族就选择暴力解决,那也不是一 两个党或者党领导人的问题了。

Elite classes of Chinese treat average Joes like shit and average Joes retaliate with violent revenge whenever there is opportunity.

Whenever China is at a historical crossroad, we often see radical solution with little institutional progress. The most recent example is the civil war.

China's current challenge is very simple: how to divide the pie and check the abusive power of elites. Establishment's answer: I take all, screw last penny out of the middle class and do not leave even soup for the underdogs.

That's the answer of today's elites, as well as those elites under KMT's Jiang.

That's why in China 社会上的以暴易暴暗涌.

Europeans/Americans' answer: independent legal system, social security program, employer-sponsored pension and medical insurance, free union, collective bargaining, and transfer of wealth from rich to poor.

Those institutional innovations established a 60-year peace in the civilized world.

Actually, even in ancient Rome, there is an institution called "tribune" whose only duty was to protect the economic interests of average Joes. This institution helped to balance the power of the senate and average citizens.

In some sense, China lacked Europe for 2,000 years here...
