I see a minority of Hong Kong folk have brought the province into economic recession...and keep trying to get and goad the Chinese Government to crackdown on them...to make a moral point...but China isn't like other countries, and it won't do that. Hong Kong can fail if Hong Kongers wish it to, unless Hong Kongers fight back against Hong Kongers. That's why its called Autonomous. If they really wish to destroy their own livelihoods etc, for 6 months, or 6 years, they can. Feeling special, superior, and exceptional all have their real consequences. They had it pretty good compared to a hell of a lot of us.
