Doesn't China do well partly by ignoring our IP laws (and having access to a lot of our IP since they're in our supply chain)?

They have done very well in the manufacturing sector via IP theft starting in the 1970s.

I don't see how that's relevant to much post-2008 in the tech sector, which is primarily software driven and where China has very intentionally built their own walled garden.
