On the serious side, I'm not sure I place Germany that far above China. On one hand, Sharansky makes clear that Germany is a free society and China a fear society. But this Prosperitarian sees a capitalistic dynamism in the PRC and an anti-capitalist dirigisme in the land my Great Grandfather fled.
Not to mention that the Communist Country loves America a lot more: Q.E.D.
