Give us your poor, your tired....

Is China the new promised land for those wanting opportunity, riches, and, yes, greater freedom than in most other countries? According to this article, yes.

"In America, for people with my religion there can be a lot of problems," said Adamou Salissou, 25, from Niger. "The image they have of Muslims is that they are terrorists. Chinese don't have a problem with religion. They think, 'It's your religion and it's okay.' "..."The main feeling is that they are free here," said Ma Chunzhen, the imam. "People are buying apartments and cars. They want to live here for good."

Of course, political freedom is no where to be mentioned in the article, or is that just sour grapes on my part?
