Nomad movie was best picture of the year. It is nothing but Chinese hegemony. The CCP is crowing about how they are making Americans eat dirt and die. The outrage in Ohio several years ago about sheetrock imported from China. It smelled so bad the houses were all re sheet rocked by the builder. Bad quality sheet rock imported from China. The expense of importing sheetrock from China was less than the expense to make it in Ohio or anywhere else in the USA apparently. This is why US Gypsum went out of business, not because of low demand as stated as the supposition of the movie plot, but because of no future due to slave wage competition. Union wages drove US Gypsum out of business. Lack of demand described at the beginning of the movie is a movie writers idea of reality, no future for an American company is the reality crushing the USA by China, inc. The Chinese Communist Party bought the USA lock stock and barrel and the USA sold out. That’s all.

A friend had a table business for 15 years, about 100 employees. Ten years ago, a Chinese company stole his design and started selling for half price. He went under.

“The expense of importing sheetrock from China was less than the expense to make it in Ohio”

The cheapness of transporting goods halfway around the world has made a mess of things.

Tried to watch that movie but the sight of an old woman peeing by the side of the road was too much.
