      @@RizkhyDestatama There is a clear line between Taking Advantage and Being Fair. You cannot be fair and take advantage of others at the same time. The US is known to change rules, and withdraw from signed deals unilaterally when it sees its side is not taking advantage. But when other countries try the same to the US, those countries would be slapped with sanctions over sanctions until they 'behave' or are brought down to their knees.

Dealing with the PRC however, is kinda tough. It's a military power plus an economic challenge plus a technological rival plus a diplomatic adversary (just look at the BRI) and worse of all, you can only destroy China at the expense of destroying yourself first tenfold.

    China has transformed from manufacturing and assembly to exporting machinery and raw material for other developing countries to do the final stage of manufacturing and assembly since those countries (Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, and even India) lack raw materials and machinery to produce.

    The reality is that the manufacturing cost is usually the lowest with the cheapest labor cost. So even if the USA decouples from China, manufacturing industries would just move to other cheap labor countries, not back to the USA. Anything manufactured in the USA would simply cost too much and would be unaffordable for consumers. What the USA needs to do is make higher quality products than China does and make the price comparable to products from China. Then most people would prefer American products simply for its higher quality. If the USA cannot make higher quality products, then make the product cheap enough that the cost savings is better than spending more for a not so much higher quality products from China. The real biggest failure of the USA is the exorbitant military spending. If 80% of the military budget went to USA infrastructure instead, the USA would be miles ahead of China in every way, and the USA would leave China in the dust. Unfortunately, the USA government is corrupted because it is actually controlled by major military complex corporations, and the USA government budget is routed through the military and war to benefit these military complex corporations. American citizens cannot do anything about it because the corruption runs so deep that not even its citizens can do anything in the supposedly most democratic country on this planet. Goes to show that it is not the type of government that determines democracy and freedom but whether the government really are there to help the majority of the people instead of the few elites.

      should, after World War II the United States and the 5 victorious countries of the war, enter into an agreement to create world peace. both communist and democratic systems have their advantages and disadvantages... why does the US government always increase its military influence throughout the world? Isn't the achievement of trade without creating war enough for the effectiveness of the whole world in the stability program of each country? and why aren't militaries just abolished all over the world? with the abolition of the military, the level of war will be low and not suffer many losses ... or if necessary, if there is a conflict, we will return to ancient times, only relying on strategies and swords or cowboy guns without the influence of nuclear control.
      at least the world is not easily damaged by increasingly sophisticated weapons due to nuclear and biochemical influences.
      but, returning to the policy of all governments, if the whole world achieves success in maintaining sovereignty and peace, then the world will be at peace forever without long conflicts.
      and maybe the whole world can be friends.

      Unfortunately western countries will not be able to make goods cheaper like China does, in China many labor costs are low and they are grateful for jobs, and why are many Chinese people very rich? because they have the idea of saving and not buying unnecessary things. when they are successful there they can buy what they want, for the Chinese it takes a process to get all of that, in contrast to western countries which have become hegemonic countries and all western products are expensive goods that lower and middle class people cannot afford , or in other words only rich people can buy branded goods made in Europe and America, are European and American countries sure they want to compete by releasing products at low prices?
      and western countries because they are strong countries and their hegemony is firmly held so that they can easily influence other countries, so all the American people can easily get whatever they want, because the value of the dollar is a currency that has a high monetary value. and all countries use dollars in transactions.
      that's why I asked, are Americans willing to make cheap goods like China, because if the American people make cheap goods automatically their income will not be as high as before when American goods were expensive goods, so that individual income is also high.

Remember it's not just high end chips that come from the west. All high end components, software and machinery for manufacturing comes from western countries. All China does is assemble parts. They are very low end/ low value add manufacturing. This can easily be done in a lot of other countries.

    Years ago, China was a closed country. They opened up to the world and their economy underwent a major transformation. They still haven't locked down their finances. But the West is now following old China. After the Russia-Ukraine war, a sense of trade protectionism has come over the heads of the West. However, countries of the Global South and China are taking advantage of this weakness of the West to cooperate with Russia and buy its products, oil and natural gas at low prices. Then they sell it to the West at a market rate. Companies on Wall Street, countries in the Global South, and China have yet to cut their product prices and fuel taxes. That means the tax revenue and profits they generate are huge by buying Russian oil and exporting cheap products.

    While most of the comments I see here are criticisms of the United States, the US government is actually accustomed to being criticized. This confidence comes from decades of dominance over the world and the established social mechanism formed by the long-standing lenient atmosphere of public opinion. American citizens are also accustomed to this, so such criticisms seem to have had no significant practical impact, and everything is still moving forward by inertia. However, despite attempts to suppress it through forceful directives and misleading guidance, the sentiment of the people will ultimately manifest gradually and subtly.
    On the other hand, China has taken a different path. Our long history of hard struggle, along with the examples of the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Ukraine, and others, has taught us that unity is necessary for survival. Therefore, "maintaining stability" has become an extremely important factor for the Chinese government. To be honest, this "unity" does not come without a cost, and not everyone agrees with it. But at least for now, this apparent "unity" stemming from authoritarian power has ensured China's combativeness in this trade war. This flawed "unity" is actually the "democratic choice" of the majority of the Chinese people.

    Labor cost dictates all. Once China's wealth rise to a certain point, their goods will be to high to buy. Production will move to other parts of the world, not the US.

    Sorry to interrupt. I don’t know how to promote my videos to those who want to learn Chinese.
    I’ve spent about 100,000 hours studying English humor and Western culture, and many years studying Chinese culture and jokes. My native language is Chinese. I teach Chinese in humorous way and with cute pictures.
