Capitalism Alive and Well in Beijing, China

I arrived on my first trip to China at the Beijing airport Monday night. Look at the American corporations that greeted me: The United Parcel Service (UPS) Coke, Starbucks, and Kentucky Fried Chicken. I have not seen a single picture of Chairman Mao yet. I've been very well treated and enjoying my first trip to China. Luckily, I have several co-workers who speak Chinese!
