This is about the crappy behavior of the Chinese who steal from their own and refuse to share the wealth with their own. The income level disparity is the worst in china. Not even countries with numerous social problems like India can compare. No offense but it is obvious you do not know enough about china to comment. Sliding the issue at hand away to criticize western culture is not going to make you look more honest btw. What did you do about the evil western companies then? You are perfectly happy working in a country that got developed largely by western as well as Japanese investments.

Stealing from your own is a perfectly natural thing to do- as time goes by they will no doubt enact laws and legislation to get the disparity down to....say, Western standards; meanwhile, it's not my job as a little man to spend all my waking hours criticising the Chinese. The Chinese (no doubt not for altruistic reasons) gave me the opportunity of my lifetime, and it's up to them to sort out their own problems. I am well aware that a lot of what you say is true but I am happy with my rose-tinted glasses- I don't see the need to have the evil truth cluttering my mind with inhibitions all the time. On a train - sitting on a plastic stool outside a cafe- off the beaten track, I find the Chinese friendly and easy to talk to, and that's good enough for me.
