在美国：
当总统成为百万富翁，不当总统可以成为亿万富翁。
克林顿2000年收入40多万，而卸任后七年，总收入已经达1亿多了。
可以看到那里的人想当总统，主要是靠激情和理想。
记得那个黑人国务卿，想半天，不愿意惹麻烦，所以拒绝再上层楼。
在中国：
人走茶凉，所以既得利益者必须死命搜刮、死命抵制任何变革。
君君臣臣，垂直统治，仅仅对上负责。权力就是一切。资源都是国王的。
利益集团从来不可能真正改良。因为即使这个改革是对整体有益的，但对个体生存肯定是威胁。
利益决定一切。屁股决定脑袋。
所以，中国的统治者压制民众几千年，现在继续压制，从根本思想上，没有看到任何改良的希望。
其实，在此特定的情况下，分裂的XX，反而是有利的。
试看：
如果没有台湾，如何知道“低素质”的国人，也可以采用西方式的“民=主”；
如果没有香港，如何知道“人多资源少”，也可以成为发达，而且不需要什么狗P计划生育；
如果没有狮城，如何知道一盘散沙的中国人，也可以井井有条；
如果没有世界各地的几千万海外华人，如何保证中华文化和血脉不会中断？
从社会成本来说：
中国自身改良，优于和平分裂；
和平分裂优于动荡；
动荡优于革命和战乱。
可惜，历史告诉我们：动荡和战乱是宿命。
希望何在？
目前，一部分人已经先富起来了，所以，在压力下改良的动力，30年来已经是强弩之末了。象张五常原本希望的再来30年的高速和平发展，恐怕是梦想了，他自己也因为新劳动法这根骆驼背上的稻草而开始忧伤了。
个人以为，最好的可能大概只能是温和地胡搞而已。
上文是看如下新闻所联想到的。
Clintons report $109 million since 2000
Income information revealed in newly released tax data
Sen. Hillary Clinton and former President Clinton reported $20.4 million in income for 2007 and more than $109 million since 2000 as they gave the public the most detailed look at their finances in eight years.
The campaign released tax returns from 2000 through 2006 and gave highlights from their 2007 return. The Clintons have asked for an extension for filing their 2007 tax returns, citing the dissolution of a blind trust last year.
The Democratic presidential candidate and her husband paid $33.8 million in taxes from 2000 through 2007. They listed $10.25 million in charitable contributions during that period.
Clinton has been under pressure to release her tax returns, especially from rival Sen. Barack Obama, who posted his 2000 to 2006 returns on his campaign Web site last week. Neither Obama nor Republican Sen. John McCain have made their 2007 tax returns public, though both say they will this month.
The Clintons last made their returns public in 2000 when they reported an adjusted gross income of $416,039. Since then, the former president has embarked on a number of business ventures and has made millions from speaking engagements.
According to a summary of the seven years provided by the campaign, the former president's speech income since he left the White House totals $51.85 million and his income from his two books — "My Life " and "Giving" — totals $29.6 million.
Hillary Clinton had $10.5 million in book income over the period from her book "Living History." She donated earnings from her other book, "It Takes a Village," to charity.
Clinton's tax returns show that of the remaining presidential candidates, she is the one most able to access large amounts of personal money. She lent her campaign $5 million in late February and could contribute more if she finds herself falling far behind Obama's proficient fundraising.
McCain's wife is heiress to her father's stake in Hensley & Co. of Phoenix, one of the largest beer distributorships in the country and her worth could exceed $100 million. But the couple has a prenuptial agreement that has kept most assets in her name. In his financial disclosures, McCain lists his major sources of income as his Senate salary of $169,300 and a Navy pension of about $56,000.
In 2006, Obama reported income of nearly $1 million, with nearly half of it coming from the publication of his second book, "The Audacity of Hope." Last week, the campaign disclosed that Obama and his wife, Michelle, gave $240,000 to charity last year.
