I feel we are talking past each other so I will leave it at that. The specialization you ... expect? is irrelevant. Business jets are not produced in China, large efficient passenger jets are not produced in China, printed silk scarves bran

"Specialize" is not quite the right word. In trade economics (from the very crudest level), trade is beneficial to BOTH parties EVEN when etc etc etc. i.e. higher profit. It's really hard to beat trade. It's not that any

That's pushing vertical integration to extremes. Is there any precedent to car carriers dedicated to one manufacturer? Wikipedia mentions a "Toyota Maru No. 10" which was NOT owned by Toyota - although I don't know if it
