Re: Apparently Chinese Mining Pools are sticking with Core! :)
My point is that it is naive to believe that the Chinese communist government doesn't control all aspects of mining within its political domain because the entire point of communism, by its very definition, is to establish a "state monopoly".
So as they control all aspects of computer manufacturing then the same thing applies to that and to clothing manufacturing, etc.
OMG - the world is controlled by a "state monopoly".
Imo, all industry located in the PRC is a state monopoly controlled by the government. You may not have an issue with this, but anyone concerned about the state of free enterprise in the world should. Monopoly is the antithesis to free enterprise.
