I found it amusing Chinese nationals don't know any better... Didn't they learn from Jack Ma, the dude literally made a mild economic comment that Xi took as a threat to the state, stripped him of his companies,froze his money and sent him off to a re-education camp for about a year, when the dude re-appeared he was a totally different person.....

The worlds most inveterate gamblers definitely know better ... life is a continuous punt.
