I will never tell any kid to eat their food because of the starving Chinese.

Seeing is believing: IMAX to launch $250,000 home theatres in China

The greedy are no different in China than anywhere else.

China is fastest growing market for luxury goods. But there are lots of starving children in China still. Only the top levels of society are enjoying the fruits of China’s economic growth.

I learned some new Chinese phrases today that are fitting.

红二代 — hong erdai — offspring of China’s founders, like the current president, Xi Jinping. 红 = red. 二代 = second generation
富二代 — fu erdai — offspring of the very wealthy (aka spoiled rich kids: little emperors and empresses)
官二代 — guan erdai — offspring of government officials, who benefit financially from business deals

These are the people who buying those $250,000 home IMAX theaters.
