So I'm wondering - are said entities going to allow this to continue IN EXCHANGE for something juicy - like an Iran war or bigger war?
If you don't want war with China, then forcibly decoupling from them right now is what everyone should be rooting for.
Why?
Because a China that has the West by the short hairs with respect to trade in cheap goods, has its world's-largest Navy sitting on trade choke points and is in control of vital minerals...has no checks on it in terms of what it can and will do.
Oh, be a real shame if we cut off your pharmaceuticals, wouldn't it? You don't have a problem with us just taking all these islands in the South China Sea, right?
That's the future we were heading towards. Would I have done everything the way Trump has? No. But that doesn't mean that a strategic economic decoupling from then isn't vitally necessary. Our Emotional Thespians on this board can't seem to process that.
