Apparently offshoring basically all of your manufacturing while not giving a shit about the loss of engineering capability and institutional knowledge has significant downsides. Who knew? Who could possibly have seen this coming?? I’m serious. I would ask the people in engineering but they all got fired like twenty years ago.
China’s got plenty demonstrated competence across the board. From lifting people out of poverty, to making large scale infrastructure projects, and now leading the way in green energy transition.
Their large scale infrastructure projects are quite successful. They definitely don’t have weird ghost cities full of buildings abandoned after construction. Definitely doesn’t have anything to do with tofu dreg.
They’ll likely have a better chance of pulling it off than America’s push to “delete China”.

In which case… they’re both screwed.
