I agree with Alan about China, but communism has nothing to do with it. They've been communist in name-only for several years. Human rights, economic poilcy, trade practices, and political bullying of their neighbors are my reasons. If there was more equal trade reciprocity, if China allowed access to their ecomony simliar to the access that they have been given to in other economies, if they were to start behaving like a "good world citizen" I would gladly recondsider.
