Interview Assignment 2 - some reflection

1. Market Economy
We know that China has converted to market economy since the reforms in 1980s, but there are a lot of problems now in China's market economy: such as counterfeit products or goods of low quality.
One feature of market economy is maximize the profit, since America is a successful market economy, how do you solve this problem?

A legal system might punish behavior which hurts others, but this incentive is not active in a situation where one can personally gain by breaking it and others cannot punish this. -Wikipedia Utilitarianism

2.Education
What does your education emphasize? Does your education encourage superiority?

How do you define success?
Do you receive any education about social responsibility?
China's `Mind your own business´

Everyone's business is no one's business.

3.Rights
We know that Americans pay a lot of attention to personal rights. the bill of rights is also world-famous. But some rights e.g the right of keeping a gun is quite controversial. What do you think about the relation between rights and security. esp. after the terrorist attack of Sept.11th?
