Freedom, as practiced by Americans, means responsibility. When human beings are endowed with free choice, it does not take long before they realize that only they themselves can be responsible for the consequences of their own choices#. With no coercion, governmental or otherwise, they consciously or unconsciously forgo their fancies and begin to make responsible choices.
// 不用害怕自由民主会导致混乱腐败。持久不衰自由民主对子民有强大调控力。
There is nothing to be feared from freedom and democracy. Instead of leading to chaos and corruption, sustained freedom and democracy have a powerful moderating effect on their practitioners.
America: Myths vs. Realities
At the confluence of several almost serendipitous philosophical, social, and geopolitical trends, the United States of America was founded and a simple idea was put into practice: let the people decide what kind of government they want and curb all powers of the government so founded with a system of checks and balances that will assure the respect for individual freedom.
Simple as it may seem, the idea was actually more radical and revolutionary than any other idea human history had ever produced. It attempted to turn human organization upside down. It was nothing less than a daring leap of faith in the understanding of human nature itself. Human beings are social animals. Governments were formed to safeguard societies, making sure that every individual behave, be considerate of others, and contribute to the common good. With the people freed from the government's watchful eye and with everybody now in pursuit of his or her own good, would society not break down and chaos not ensue?

// human beings can read each other mind, heart, and soul that is trustworthy.
// there are high truths out there disregard that you notice it or not.
// there are wisdoms and responsibilities a certain amount of people share, if not by all, striving to promote the common interests of the public goods and humanity.
no worry. we can come back at a later time. cheers and enjoy.

老兄,多谢真心交流。政见不同,看法不同是可以接受的。
只是对老兄下面这个判断感到不可思议。
2)他长期让他老婆和有间谍嫌疑的外国人勾搭鬼混 // how do you know. can you approve it. seeing is believing. or it is falgery (zao jia) = criminal = put in jail.
谢谢推腹之言。i believe 万总 is aleady financailly free. but his 才情, 关注祖国, 热诚依旧.佩服.
1. 薄的折腾是会把中国引向倒退。 // i don't think so. i pay attention and follow him up for a long time when he served as minister of commerce. i watch his videos and it can deceive me. // he and 西总 was put in prison in 文革. i don't believe he want to be or put innocent people in prison any more.
2. 只说两点: 1) 他一方面让大家唱红,但让他儿子小小的出国学习,一点红也不唱。 // there is a pic both bo and little bo 唱红, but i don't see top guys in china 唱红 any more. // now lots of ordinary people take graduate study in u.s. by borrowing RMB50万. i don't think bo prodigous family has this financial difficulty. Man. the kid went to study in England at age 11. and i went to beijing for college at age 15-16 and i felt very challenging.
3. 2)他长期让他老婆和有间谍嫌疑的外国人勾搭鬼混 // how do you know. can you approve it. seeing is believing. or it is falgery (zao jia) = criminal = put in jail.
4. i believe bo is motivated and honest striving to be an excellent politician. nothing wrong. whereas, he is most competent with the electoral ground.
sorry. need to run. talk you back soon.
thanks Friend. cheers and enjoy.
sincerely,

老兄,顶你“This is free forum to speak and express to help our home country and the country folks”。
// sorry. we talk about 西总, not 万总.
// i believe 西总 is a down-to-earth person. i trust he will move china is the right direction with decent speed. however, he has much restriction regarding the power he inherited.
// now worry. let watch. if obama disppoint his constituents, he will lose the re-election in term of how much tolerance they are willing to give him for bad employment rate, economic performance, etc.
===========================================================
// 八兄, No worry. No right or wroing. This is free forum to speak and express to help our home country and the country folks. I think Bo is doing right things but he can not get along with his peers. that is the pathetic about our home country. Taiwan is lucky to have the little jiang to give them a free land to live for the sake of all the human beings in the island. BTW: if china is a free land like u.s., we don't need to stay in this foreign country where we don't belong to.

没想到万老先生旅美多年后仍就抱着,只有庸君作为中国领导的观念。什么是本分? 无领导魄力,没有远见,没有魄力。 酒囊饭袋的庸君为中国领导使中国前景不妙。万老先生还是跳出你的盒子想问题吧,(out of your box) .
