The number one reason why we like to be in China is the people. China has extraordinary skills. And the part that’s the most unknown is there’s almost two million application developers in China that write apps for the iOS App Store.

Why does that set off my BS detector?
RE: Why does that set off my BS detector?
Well, don’t just write a one liner... tell us why it’s BS.
It sounds China-approved.
China has over a billion people, of course odds are they have plenty of smart people over there.
And it’s not exactly as if our education system here is cranking out geniuses.
Because you are lying to yourself. China teaches skills in school, we teach Social Justice, in fact they send their Stem students here where they actually learn instead of partying.
I hate that China is a totalitarian government as much as you do in fact that would include about every other government besides ours, up until now anyway.
We can put our heads in the sand if we like but if you think the Chinese or any other country for that matter does not have intelligent creators in their midst we are being foolish. Mostly they are restricted by politics/corruption like we often are here.
I remember how we though we were pulling one off on Japan by selling them all our scrap which they turned into ships and planes and returned to us.
Because your BS detector has a bias setting that you left turned on...
But here’s a way of looking at it: show me where we have the combination here in the US.
