  They make a profit at the end of the supply chain, but all their materials are sourced at cost since the state is running the company. US companies have to pay profit all down the supply chain, which is why there is such an advantage to being able to vertically integrate your supply chain in the US. In China, is essentially all vertically integrated already.
