Look at the little children! Isn't it sweet that they aren't with their parents, actually learning about life through living, but rather in some elite social greenhouse, learning the great Gordan Gecko lessons, such as "Greed is Good" and "Capitalism and Exploitation are the way of the future!"

Bonus points go to the kid who does a presentation with diagram! Lord forbid she should learn confidence by asking another child to play on the playground, or through talking to the shop keeper while out doing errands with Mum...no, far better that she is in a homogenised, diversification free environment, where there is no room for individual thought...

I am also just tickled pink that an American company is teaching Chinese kids all about greed...because the "natives" haven't known how to do anything, for thousands of years...It's not like they are an ancient civilisation, who's ideas on child rearing, economics and health are now not only being recognised, but actively embraced by those of us here in the western world.

*sigh* Where are we going, and why are we all in this hand-basket?

It’s quite humorous that the big, nice, American man wants to teach them to “think outside the box”. Does a 3-year-old understand what the “box” is, and furthermore that’s better to be outside it then in it??

He must not be able to see properly because of the dollar signs in his eyes.
