They are happy with the government because of the peace and prosperity it has brought so far.Why do so many people feel that the Chinese can’t possibly be OK with their government or society? It seems that many in West deem the current Chinese government/society as wrong and that any “right-thinking” person would agree and join in the fight.Why do Chinese people like their government?
