I could see this scenario. The only modernities and modern combat tech they have, they either copied or stole. Their newest assault rifle......copied from Western designs..... Their infantry night vision goggles..... Aren't night vision goggles, they are cameras...... The state stole the people's desire to innovate, own property, own the fruit of their labor and IP and as a result must steal everything from their superiors. If America falls, how can China stand without us? It would be like cutting your legs out from under you. We hold China up.
what scares me is developers in the US buy rebar among other materials from china because it is 'cheap' and then wonder why buildings aren't settling properly.
Yes. This was a serious problem for the US Bay bridge and will continue to be for decades until it goes down. QC issues were so bad, they had to send US inspectors overseas to the Chinese prefabrication site to QC all the materials and construction and they still had issues.
