True....but some of the corrupt elite that own the big studios his movies produce have made him millions and millions of dollars.

If he believes that, he hasn't dealt with many countries, including China, in the same way most businesses do.

It's hard to argue with him about that.

The country? I dunno. The govt, today? YES! But even that is due to who really has too much influence resulting in corruption. We need to deal with this.
We have a plutocracy at the top and they are corrupt...even if it has factions that disagree with each other. Hence, the US govt is, imo, the most corrupt it's ever been.

I've done business in China. Easily the worst experiences I've ever had.

I hope he was referring to the government, because he's kind of right.
I'd imagine the Chinese government is far more corrupt. |

We are actually pretty stupid for making him rich off his shitty ass movies. Some of his earlier ones are good. Horrible remake of an epic 80s movie who I refuse to call it that because it is not worthy of the name.

I have a friend who grew up in India and as an adult, immigrated to this country and finally attained citizenship about a decade ago. He laughs everytime he hears someone say this kind of thing.
And as far as business goes, I've worked with China as well. No shame in cheating someone, only shame in getting caught. |
