No country has a monopoly on stupidity.

It does make democracy look flawed though. China may be on to something.
But so does Taiwan. Maybe it is not about political ideology but culture instead.

I was thinking about Eastern culture and Western culture and they have different roots.

Eastern Culture is influenced by Daoist-Buddhist values which emphasize the three jewels; compassion, frugality, and moderation.

Western culture is influenced by Judaeo-Christian-Islamic values including genocide of people for the benefit of God.

I think I like Eastern culture more.
