Why should it matter whether China does it, in the decision of whether any other countries should do it? I thought we are supposed to support liberal values even when times get tough.

Yes, lately the US has struggled to distribute that wealth domestically. But that’s not Chinas fault and scapegoating them Will not fox that problem.
- zepto 6y agoThere is ample evidence that China’s GDP has overtaken the US on any real measure. And the idea that jobs that were formerly done in the US have not been exported to China is ludicrous.
