Excerpts from the Ted Koppel series, The People's Republic of Capitalism. These two scenes are designed to illustrate the attitude of China's upper and middle classes to the prospects of political change, especially democracy, in China. The key point is obvious: the middle and upper classes prefer authoritarianism to democracy and will continue to support the Chinese Communist Party as long as their economic interests are protected.
