Hong Kong is an economic miracle. and an example of the work of capitalism like none other on Earth. The per capita earning rate is 29 times greater than that of the Peoples Republic of China. The people of Hong Kong are people of talent and great entrepreneurial skill. They understand. as perhaps no other nation can. the difference between totalitarianism and freedom. Many of them are. in fact. refugees from mainland China. They are. in sum. the very kind of people we need in the United States. We ought to increase our quota for people from Hong Kong to provide insurance for them against the murderous tyranny of communism.
