Idle thoughts of a relatively libertarian Republican in Cambridge, MA, and whomever he invites. Mostly political.

My favorite source for China news and analysis — The Kitchen Cabinet, now back out from under its collective weather, being a close second — is John Derbyshire, who writes on, among other things, the assertion that we are "oblivious" to China's economic resurgence:Who's oblivious? You can't open a newspaper or magazine without seeing an article about China. I imagine he puts himself closer than most people to the newspapers and magazines that one can't open without seeing an article on China; I actually worry a great deal that Americans by and large are too complacent about China. (I've met many good Chinese people, and I wish the people of China well, which is to say I wish their leaders ill. I hope the nation is not culturally innoculated against such things as freedom and pluralistic democracy.)
