Have you done a counting of the population of China in general?  What
is the % of the Chinese who are able to get onto international usernet
and express themselves freely?  Even if the Chinese people you have
read in usernet love their government, does it mean that government,
especially after the market reform, has not done a good thing?  That
government, which was very repressive under Mao, has managed to move
millions out of poverty in 30 years time spent.  Thus inspite of its
political imperfection, it has to be given some credit in this area.

Do you know of any perfect government in the world?  Every government
has to be assessed by yardsticks that are relative to time and space.
What is good today may not be good tomorrow!

Go and take some courses at universities in political science and
economics.
