BoXiLai - anyone else just not believe anything anymore?

So people are going crazy in China over this BoXiLai thing, as he was supposedly a symbol for anti-corruption, truth, blablabla...


Maybe I've grown cynical, but does anyone else feel like it's simply impossible to know the truth in China anymore when it comes to political affairs?


I mean, this guy was the grandson of one of some high up revolutionary in Mao's time. He was always rich, powerful, had good connections, etc... with the level of corruption so rampant in the country, how on earth do people actually believe in ANY of these guys?

Was it ever possible to know the truth about anything in China?
