The funny part is, speaking is relatively easy. Once you get the hang of tones, the grammar is fairly simple.

The writing system IS particularly difficult though. At a minimum it doubles the number of things you have to learn (from ~3000 words for just speaking, to ~3000 words + ~3000 characters).

I would love to see the facts that most minimum wage holders belong to middle class households.

Then you should look, because you'll find it.

For you naysayers who want to mark down my post,

Your post should be modded down because you didn't research before writing it. Not even a simple Google search.

Seriously thought, think about it. What is more likely, that the world powers are holding a meeting together, in the open, where everyone can see it (at least, see that it's happening).......or that the Bilderberg meetings are just a distraction from the real meetings, where the real world powers get together? Don't you think they'd be much better at hiding it?

"They may have learned their Chinese shut up in their study reading the Analects."

I had a professor who literally did learn his Chinese reading the Analects. He couldn't speak a word of the language. When he took a taxi in China, he had to write on paper to communicate with the driver.

This all might sound like something that would come out of a conspiracy nut, but time and again these past two decades, the conspiracy nuts have been proven right.

To avoid being a 'nut', base your opinions on evidence. That way you will be right more often than a stopped clock (which is right two times a day).

Your last statement is a complete farce, and I'd suggest reading the article and actually studying what the Bilderberg conference is about, as opposed to the blanket dismissal without evidence.

The Bilderberg conference is almost a shibboleth for people who think reading naturenews or similar counts as research.
