Would I be arrested if I went to China to sell them technology? |

Many of our corporate executives have and they're still doing fine.
Maybe I should do the same.
But, wait, I'd be arrested as a spy giving out "US secrets". Or, worse, arrested as a terrorist.
How come corporate execs can freely trade with the enemy and the rest of us cannot, huh?

1. A Republican could sell the newest high speed super computer to China |
|
and get an award from Bush.
A Democrat could sell a calculator made in Malaysia to China - and get five years in jail.

2. You could ask Bush* to grant you a waiver like Loral Group got from Reagan |
|
Loral Group sold China high tech guidance systems for their space program. Clinton "renewed" that waiver and was accused of selling China top secret material. Loral Group was/is a GOP contributor.

3. The GOP is one group of sick mofos, that's for sure. |
