This is infuriating at so many levels. Here is how the long view of the chicoms has paid off:
- they willingly opened their cheap 'slave' labor force to foreign manufacturers;
- the chicoms get their peasants manufacturing skills they could not develop themselves;
- their mediocre engineers learn from the better foreigners; - over time they collapse the economy of their business 'partners' and lend them money;
- they copy manufacturing processes, technology, and designs along the way shortening their own learning curve;
- once the economic opportunity arises they flood the same market as their business 'partners' with a cheaper yet almost equal product;
- they bury the competition and take over that market.

The auto industry is only the newest example of this; they are well under way in the commercial aviation and space industries not to mention super computers and telecommunications.

All with the help of a short sided U.S. government (with their manufacturing unfriendly regulations) and their union benefactors.

Huawei is doing exactly the same thing in Africa. They have almost completely taken over the Telecoms business.
