Damn, this is the simplest, most accurate breakdown on what’s actually happening that I’ve come across. The incoming administration is pretty transparent in the bend toward corruption, and these folks know exactly how to manage that as a business challenge.

I'd remove the race baiting but yeah it's pretty spot on.

I think they're referring to nationality not ethnicity.

Chinese nationals know how to deal with Party officials because necessary to get ahead in China, not because it's some racial trait.

Yes, that was my intention.

I still object to this being a trait of Chinese people or citizens of China.

Chinese government certainly

In that case perhaps detail why you believe it isn't how the Chinese government operates?

Why don't you detail why you believe only the Chinese government operates that way. It's MY government, the US government, not the Chinese government that is the subject of these bribes and flattery. It's a human trait not a trait of the nation of China.

You could say that, but if it turns out to be working in the US...
