So we can see that they are well on track to have annual industrial production of over a trillion.

And we produced almost $400 billion in May alone. So how are we enfeebled? How is China stealing all our manufacturing?

But not to worry, we're always told that the hemmhorrage(sic) will be healed like magic by insourcing.

Hemorrhage is a strange word to use to describe our rising manufacturing output. Maybe it doesn't mean what you think it means.

So? How much of that is Chinese base product, with minimal additional US contribution,...marked up to U.S. retail? Your bookkeeping misses the point completely.

It is especially telling that you blow off the actual vectors and growth indicators and their scope, after you explicitly wanted that comparison. Now you are already running for the tall grass and trying to throw sand in the eyes...t'sk.

As an aside, it should be mentioned that you can never have a realistic comparison vis-a-vis China so long as there is no adjustment for the Communist's strategy to deeply understate the value of their labor and hence their product.

More likely "rising U.S. manufacturing output" doesn't mean what you think it means.
