The Internet rewards scale; by trading higher up-front costs for lower marginal cost, market leaders can invest in better technology and service.

I was very much a product of the public-school system. There was only one other kid in my class who had parents not involved in the stock market or law.

So I think one can say on empirical grounds - not because of some philosophical principle - that you can't have democracy unless you have a market economy.
After the Revolution in '49, all the films were propaganda. They serviced the government and carried the message that the government wants to relay to the people. But I think, in the last 10 years, because the film market is opening and there's an expansion of all the cinemas in China, it's now a lot like Hollywood productions.
I feel like I went through the Great Depression. All these companies are being successful around you, you're on that track, and then the market collapses, and you're out of a job.
