No argument that the Chinese government has a long way to go before we consider 
China an open and free country.  However as someone who lived in Hong Kong 
during the cultural revolution, I have seen a lot of good progress on the part 
of the Chinese in the past 3 decades. At the same time I have seen a lot of 
regression in our own standards for openness and  freedom.
