I don't know, can you tell me?

China claims to be the nation of the future, but unfortunately the Chinese people are saddled with a government that is stuck firmly in the middle of the twentieth century. We all feel sorry for the people of China. And can anybody tell us why is Ai Weiwei in detention? For economic crimes? That's a joke. What are they scared of? He's just an artist!

Government fear of people forming rebellion easily. The present regime knows its history lessons well. Just look at how hard it was then for the Manchus and with present technology...
