-Caveat Lector- >>In order to effect a more perfect understanding of the issues at hand, we must look not only into the mirror, but become the mirror to see how we really look. <A<>E<>R> << From People's Daily Online }}>Being Recognize Differences There are two philosophies of life in the world: The wise man: I know I'm lagging behind, I bend myself to work and will not seek the limelight. The strongest: I am number one in the universe, it's all up to me to throw my weight about and make troubles whenever and wherever I like. There are two kinds of logic in the world: Some countries: Democracy can be improved only through development. Some others: Only by democracy can development be achieved. There are two judgements in the world: China: Socialism and socialism alone can save and develop China. Each country has its own developing mode. The US: Capitalist democracy is all-powerful to save the world and that can find no other ways out. Two mottoes are heard in the world: China: Development is the absolute guiding principle. The US: National interests are above everything. ¡ China and the US are so different that they can be described as: one "tolerates for the sake of development", and the other "unscrupulously practices power politics". So decades-old disputes arose between the two: the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea (1950-53); Taiwan, unsinkable aircraft carrier for the US; bombing Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia "by mistake"; TMD; US spy plane mid-air bumping into China's jet fighter. Though we can not avoid disputes and confrontations yet we can avert an escalation of these for the world people, including the two peoples of China and the US, share the same interests, hopes and values: Peace and Develo pment. Nonetheless, it is necessary for us to point out the different outlooks characterizing the two nations' moral principles: The US: human life is of supreme importance, a message driven home by a Hollywood film "Saving Private Ryan". China: laying down one's life for a just cause as embodied by the spirit of mythical bird Jingwei from an old Chinese fable that had made a tenacious effort to fill up the sea with pebbles. It is still more necessary for us to tell another life philosophy of the Chinese people: They will never be senseless trouble makers and, at the same time, will by no means shrink back from any trouble found at their door.

His task is to demonstrate repeatedly and in depth that not only the emperor but even the "democratic" State has no clothes; that all governments subsist by exploitive rule over the public; and that such rule is the reverse of objective necessity. He strives to show that the existence of taxation and the State necessarily sets up a class division between the exploiting rulers and the exploited ruled. He seeks to show that the task of the court intellectuals who have always supported the State has ever been to weave mystification in order to induce the public to accept State rule and that these intellectuals obtain, in return, a share in the power and pelf extracted by the rulers from their deluded subjects.
