This is the biggest leopards ate my face moment. After decades of outsourcing to china and pandering to the chinese market for a quick buck, we are now surprised that they have become rich and decide their growth must be curbed. Honestly we in the west deserve everything that is coming to us

If the West lets it happen, sure. Still seems like there is some amount of time to reverse course and stop handing the future to China if the West so desires.

But democracies these days can't help but tie themselves in knots, so not holding my breath.
