  • Translate the interview. We don't know CHinese.

  • Of course it's biased. A lot of western documentaries, etc. give people a WESTERN point of view, not caring about things like cultural differences, etc. ^__^ And Mao... he was probably a good tactician, but a very bad economist.

  • even if i did speak chinese, i dont think i would be able to understand half of what they were saying.

  • Its a shame that China has fallen back into Capitalism. The people are being used in sweat shops, children are working, all the things Mao worked so hard to get rid of are back thanks to one man. Deng Xioping.

  • 16:35 "Chinese need an Emperor"

    What such beautifull words.....must return to the old and safe way of life, because unfortunately the capitalism is a worst and evil forche that must be destroyed with the Revolution, the Work and the People Unity.

    Long Life to the People's Republic of China and the Comunism!!!!!!!!

  • The one with 6-figure salary looks WAY less happy than field/factory workers btw.....

  • one does not "borrow government funds" one EMBEZZLES

  • @djnobel and who are u

  • it would be nice if they could at least translate what the chinese ppl are saying if the show has a chick speaking ENGLISH

  • Revolution is always harsh, its a fact, take a look at our own countries' history. Revolution is always bloodbath. It's a usual thing in this world. Sacrifice is imminent, without sacrifice there is no revolution. Mao did he had to do, Washington did what he had to do, the french and other revolutionaries did the same as well

  • wow if hitler's cronies still ran germany can you imagine how outraged the world would be? and yet mao's legacy still runs china? so outrageous. mao is the most evil man who ever lived. he fled his father's farm yet went to school on the proceeds, then later he sent everyone smart enough to rebel off to die in the wastelands he abandoned. he is the biggest hypocrite ever. someone needs to carve how evil he was on his stupid plastic coffin- controlling oppressed and starving people is no feat
