Jim Hightower:

The land of Mao, who vehemently denounced the material and moral decadence of the West, now owns one of the West's most decadent consumer products. Though the Hummer's Chinese name is "Han Ma," the marketing concept for this humongous armored chunk of ostentatious testosterone remains the same. Han Ma means "fierce horse."
