    If that is the case, you probably should have thought about that 50 years ago when "you" allowed and encouraged industries to out-source. But it's too late now.

      China: we're going to become a manufacturing machine for the world, but we're going to use your investment, technology, and infrastructure to build up our country and eventually overtake you.

      US capitalists: hah, yeah, sure. Would you look at these profit margins!?

      well, the US could do a revolution, nationalize what's left of the country and then start rebuilding. that would prevent this ghastly future...

      but nah, they're gonna ride neoliberalism to the grave.
