China's Great Wall of Blindness
( thoughts before coffee. "BYD" China's electric vehicle)
__________
The first thing to say to my chinese brothers is that you didn't get here by way of a scientific committee but by a choice of two to become one in mind and body, in reaction to the perceived phenomena. That moral choice between good and evil precedes and is progenitor, even to your analysis of it¹.
It extends also to the definition of democracy as the sum of individuals and their choices; each being a market unto himself, and as a collective, inextricably invested in the other- 'providing what's best', because 'A chain is only as strong as its weakest link'!
In a single market, the actions of "a flood" lift and carry all in its wake to the same place, and the Chinese electric vehicle thereunto denies our individual choices because we're blinded to the others, becoming a weakened link in global human progress.
