You're intentionally misleading away from the point: the United States does not benefit from becoming wholly dependent on China for industrial goods. I don't care what some Wall Street exec or Austrian School "scholar" tells you.

Sure, some shareholders might - and they're the same ones who also benefit from screwing migrant laborers - but you're not one of these captains of industry who can jet off to their bunker in New Zealand when shit hits the fan.

> becoming wholly dependent on China

Becoming? Like that isn't already the case?

This is a special purpose carve out to reward a voting block. The rest of us get globalism.
