Communist-controlled China is a threat to free expression and peaceful commerce, but we here in the west are nonetheless more-than-happy to do business with them anyway. And that complicity comes at a cost, whether we want to admit it or not. To get into the nitty-gritty of just what it means to do business with, in, and for China, I (Colin!) invited Sale Lilly to the show. Sale is a Senior Policy Analyst at the world-famous RAND Corporation. A Mandarin-speaking ex-US Naval officer, educated at Oxford and specializing in China, Sale has wonderful insight into just what's going on on the other side of the Pacific. How did China come to be the totalitarian force it now is? How does economics factor into that? And -- perhaps most important, for our podcast -- how does all of this intersect with entertainment and gaming? If you're not a fan of politics and economics, this episode of + is decidedly not for you. Consider yourself fairly warned.
