An excellent article; my only caveat was at the beginning, where he basically said "China is not capitalist, it's communist because it lacks human rights". My initial thought was "it's possible for a country to be both capitalist and authoritarian." However, the rest of the article states his case more clearly.
Human rights in China is similar to here in the United States... as long as you stay out of trouble you are largely ignored. Once you do something that brings negative attention to yourself you can find yourself in the "system". A person doesn't want to get to closely exposed to the justice system of the United States, it is not always just.
