I think a heavy hand with China is absolutely needed. Trade and manufacturing from cheap, and some say abusive, labor practices have done nothing to improve human rights for China, but it's done wonders to prop up the current regime. It seems the only thing China will respond to is losing money. Who would've thought communists would've made such great capitalists.

Your comments were narrow — you only cited “human rights”, which yes, China is abysmal. But what about quality of life in general? My understanding is that QOL has gone up dramatically in China.
