Koppel's TV program on China

A successful businessman, with a perfect American accent, told Koppel that he prefers the current Chinese political structure to democracy.

Why? Because he knows what to expect from the Chinese government. It is a Confucian view of life. The Chinese are about to show us if their "system" is superior to the vagaries of a democratic system. It should not take much time. A few years.

My sense is that democracy is bound to become victim of a burgeoning bureaucracy which eventually stifles growth. Europe and Singapore...two examples of what I am talking about.
