Receiving end is more interesting

Sammy has now been charged with bribing Chinese regulators along with US regulators.

The giving end of this bribe is unsurprising. Sammy is a professional criminal. Everything he does is slimy.

The receiving end is a bit more interesting in terms of UNNECESSARY ENTITIES. Our writers on “both” “sides” constantly emphasize that China is Communist. You can’t say just plain China, you have to say CCP or Red China.

Chinese culture is different from Western in most ways, but alike in economic terms. The sole purpose of both governments is to enrich the rich and kill the poor. All money and power is vacuumed out of the peasants and flooded into the aristocrats. Sammy’s aristocratic criminal syndicate was fully aligned with the goals of both governments, so his bribes were received and obeyed by both governments.
