Their human rights record is even worse.
But as long as they buy our debt and then send back cheap crap for everyone to buy, few will speak up.
From AFP:
China's human rights record worsened last year as authorities increased harassment of activists and repression in the Xinjiang region, the US State Department said Thursday.
"The government's human rights record remained poor and worsened in some areas," the annual report by the State Department said.
It said Beijing "increased the severe cultural and religious repression of ethnic minorities" in Xinjiang, the western region that last year saw deadly clashes between China's Han majority and the local Uighur people.
The State Department said China "continued to repress Uighurs expressing peaceful political dissent and independent Muslim religious leaders," by trying to associate the predominantly Muslim people with terrorism.
