"Free market" means protectionism until you can compete, then you tell others to stop being protectionist and join the "free market" while they sell you their goods and get you addicted to them. The US only stopped being protectionist in the 40s after WW2, then dipped back into protectionism when we couldn't compete with Japanese car manufactures. Now we're doing it with China but using "potential security concerns" to outright ban the competition.

[@Fleshox19-uz3qt]

That's what you think. A war is coming to China and the one thing the Americans are good at is recognising when a country is about to go to war them, they remove their money and investments out of the country. What's 100% certain is that you don't make money with a country that's at war. And isn't weird that the cheap poor quality Chinese products that people are starting to boycott are still sitting in Chinese ports and growing. Decoupling is happening whether you want to recognise it or not, its still happening and gathering pace. There is no long term benefit in having China as a trading partner. NONE.

[@os2958]

Ultimately the best answer is cooperation. But if China is out to destroy US economic power than the US must respond. Yes China does have more people but that is also a problem because all those people need resources to survive and China does not have enough resources to take care of all of that cheap labor.

While China has embraced education and technology, it seems that in the U.S. there has been a decades-long drive to defund public education, harass teachers, and hold universities in contempt, then many Americans get angry when they cannot compete for high-paying, high-tech jobs due to a lack of education. As an American, I have to admit that I am quite worried about the future of the United States.

@ronbeaubien The attempts to defund public education, harass teachers, and hold universities in contempt aren't new at all. They were present when I was going to high school in the 1970s. Yes, ultimately, the opposition of all of that idiocy won and history speaks for itself. We Columbians undoubtedly won 🏆🎉 the Cold War and in particular, the First Gulf War in 100 hours ! Remember what Columbian sailors were doing on that fateful Sunday when Pearl Harbor was attacked. As my Dad, the designated survivor of his parental family, was probably there in Honolulu, there's no place to run away anymore: from the East China Sea, the Battle of the Atlantic, to the Great Pacific War -- his coal-hauling ship 🚢 in the Atlantic was torpedoed, aflame, sinking, and the Kriegsmarine ordered evacuation to their U-boat immediately (to avoid a steam explosion and becoming shark food.)

The issue with the United States is very simple. We are more concerned about equity than we are worried about results. That is why the education here in the United States on a public level is trash. I learned more my own time studying than I have in school by a long shot.

[@markalbert9011]

"I learned more my own time studying than I have in school by a long shot." I'm 72yo and that's the way it's always been. Fact is YOU have done exactly what the US educational system was designed to do. TO TEACH YOU TO THINIK FOR YOURSELF!! Teaching facts is easy, teaching independent thought is not.

[@Edmundo75]

The answer is a renewed focus on equality of opportunity i.e. the starting line which in our case is public education. Equality of outcome is a terrible, freedom-stifling goal. If the starting line is equal for everyone, then people need to be free to succeed or fail based on their inherent abilities and talents or lack thereof. Now, as far as American sub-cultures go that focus on victimhood, that's not a problem government can solve. That's where personal responsibility and accountability come into play. Not denying the existence of racism but if structural racism was such a huge factor in holding people of color down, why do African and West Indian immigrants do so well and prosper in the USA?

[@jaemegrrl]

⁠@@Edmundo75because they did not install 400 yrs of institutional racism & slavery. This fact alone accounts for our historic accelerated economic rise to a First World power, which has dominated the 19th, 20th and now 21st centuries.

Yes, if you look at export amount in terms of dollar amount the export is higher. The problem for China though is the few million jobs lost and the drop in FDI to a 30 year low. The jobs lost are most manufacturing jobs, so how do you resolve the issue of the dollar amount of exports going up but manufacturing jobs going down? It's because the number of BEV exports have gone up for 2024, so the dollar value in that ONE market masks the reality in China, which is most manufacturing jobs are already gone, and many that are left and going to have to rely on the Chinese market. And there is no guarantee that BEV export numbers will remain high. A lot of manufacturing HAS left China to India (who WILL replace China), SE Asia, Mexico or nearshoring or going back to their home countries for the company. And most companies no longer want to rely on one manufacturing base because of risk to supply chains. And the loss in manufacturing in China is increasing every month, and it's for many reasons including CHINESE companies moving manufacturing out of China. THEMS are the facts, but sure, the dollar value for exports from China simply due to the large increase of BEV exports which is a high dollar item hides the reality from the people who don't follow events in China, which is impossible to do following the main media because they can't report on bad things happening in China or they have to leave China because they risk getting thrown in jail for life or their media company risks getting banned from China. FDI tells the picture though. Investors, just like manufacturers make decisions every month to pull out of China and once again FDI is at a 30 year low, and dropping.

Economic theory & common sense tells you, the poorer you are, the less capable you are of handling debt ( eg you have $10 while have $1 debt , I have $100 with $10 debt, it’s always easier for me to, eg by scrimping my life, etc to serve my debt, while you would have a lot of basics to meet with your $10) Also, it always requires more funding ( more debt) to grow economy further.

Most mature countries, like the US, do not rely on FDI anyway. China is becoming a mature economy, just like most European countries, although its per capita GDP is still considered pretty low.

Has anyone wondered why that the USA, a free society with a laissez-faire capitalist market, is in fear of not being able to compete with China, a communist country. If China is truly a communist country with oppressed unhappy people and stifled creativity and productivity, it would have been a slam dunk on the verdict. But it's not. China is a socialist country with a capitalist market supported by strategic industrial policies. It's not the Soviet Union or the East Germany you think it is. Now the USA has to resort to Tonia Harding style bullying to knee-cap China in order to bring down its economy and harm its 1.5 billion people who are on the trajectory to improve their lot of life through hard work and creativity, while the people in the US are fighting over the right of the embryos and neutral gender bathrooms? Fixating on China and Taiwan is not going to fix the thousands of endangered bridges, daily gun violence, the outrageous drug prices or the dying manufacturing towns since the US corporations are not moving the factories back from China to our country - they are moving to Vietnam (another "communist" country) and Mexico! But the US politicians are debating to ban Tik Toc! Why so many of us don't getting the irony? There is a structural deficiency here with a system that aims to divide people to gain campaign votes. Each party wishes the other to fail in governing the country so that their party can be elected. How can this system work for the people?

This is precisely why there is a war in Ukraine, as China has already started to build railway lines to cross the land to trade with Europe and the Americans don't like it. So they started the war in Ukraine to stop it at any cost, even disrupting the pipeline to Germany to their detriment, and can't rely on very cheap oil and gas from Russia. The Americans and the West wanted to control the trade routes: which is why, there were troubles in Israel again to stop the trade from reaching both, Africa and Europe. It controls the commercial trade routes from Asia to Europe and Africa by land through the Middle East and Ukraine, making out that China and Russia are the bad guys. The real reason is coming with the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa), and with more countries joining them Iran. Africa is waking up to who controls this world, and wants to go back to paying with Gold back currency instead of Fiat backed with promissory notes on the never, never, and only use quantitative easing that really, devalues their debt they will never pay back. All the time, people from all over the world lose out, especially in America and the West where any money they have in banks and pensions is worth less and less by becoming worthless, also as paying more on everything they buy on anything. The whole world is under mass psychosis of allowing the people in power to think of themselves instead of getting their heads together to stop this evil running the world. Yet scriptures have been written who believe in the Messiah, as he said in the Gospel of John 8:23-27., 23: And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. 24: I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins...

As someone who has lived and invested in China for over a decade, I believe that China's government and authoritarian system ensure that they can never surpass the United States. While Chinese people are intelligent, the restrictions imposed by the government make it difficult for Chinese businesses to develop freely, hindering technological innovation. China's development in the first 40 years relied on the relaxation of authoritarianism and the demographic dividend of the laboring population, which are now diminishing. I don't think China will pose a major threat in the future; rather, over time, it may decline into a very poor country unless there are significant political changes or the collapse of the Communist Party.

[@MSLNY]

Furthermore, Xi's dictatorship and the populism he has stirred up against the United States and its allied countries have led foreign investments to gradually abandon China due to political instability.
