      Oh, stop the nonsense.
      For decades, when the US and the West still had the upper hand, no one said the Chinese market was not free, but after losing the competition, suddenly every time you opened your mouth you accused the Chinese market of not being free.
      If China's market is not free, how can China still be in the WTO?
      If the Chinese market is not free, how can the second largest Apple store in the world be in Shanghai China?

      What most people don’t get?
      Is yes in “most” cases when you go to China to sell into their domestic markets you have to take a Joint Venture (JV) partner
      And in “most” cases when you go to China to open up a factory, and export those goods back to your country you don’t have to take on a JV partner
      These days ?????
      Is it is US multinationals making the lion share of those profits inflating the trade deficit between China to the USA
      Where Chinese companies mostly trade with their Belt and Road country partners these days
      These US multinationals are the ones sending you that junk
      These US multinationals are still using the same highly polluting labour intensive factories formula.
      As they were using more and more illegal labour in their Chinese factories, smuggled in from South East Asia.
      Or more and more automation in their wholly owned factories in China these days
      These are the same companies who got those trump Corporate tax cuts you for sure cheered about
      Same companies based in China who derived 392 billion in sales into the Chinese domestic markets in 2018 when trump started his trade war
      Same companies averaging 20% to 40% of their earnings from China whose high flying stocks are in your 401k/Pensions
      Same companies who the American farmer and consumer were sacrificed. So the USA could try and get “more” or “better” access for the US multinationals, into those Chinese Domestic markets during the trade war
      Same companies whose HQ is in a North American city you can easily go stand outside and protest at….
      Why didn’t China pull the nuclear trade option and boot these US companies you might ask?
      They don’t believe in a zero sum game type of thinking
      As I can show you during the trade war.
      China didn’t pull out their big trade weapons, in fact they were lowering tariffs to most countries not raising them
      👇
      Trump’s ‘trade war’ with China won’t be so easy to win
      Having learned these value chain lessons, Beijing has worked hard to bring more of the high-value-adding parts of value chains into China, and to build hi-tech industries in which it can establish a globally competitive position.
      China has successfully done this in areas like high-speed trains (CRRC), digital telecoms networks (Huawei), drones (DJI) and hi-tech batteries (BYD).
      Trump’s team is not wrong to be worried about China’s competitive emergence here, and to target these new-tech sectors in the latest trade war sortie.
      But here’s the problem: China exports almost none of these new-tech products to the US, making US tariff threats meaningless. Rather, they go to developing economy markets - many embraced by the Belt and Road initiative - where China has succeeded in building a hi-tech, high-value brand reputation.
      As Trump’s team will quickly learn, the challenge of finding China’s pain points is bigger than expected: for a decade China’s priority has been to base growth on the domestic consumer economy and reduce reliance on the low-value-adding export processing industries (many of which are US- or Hong Kong-owned and concentrated in the Pearl River Delta)

    target Chinese EVs,Solar panels and batteries. Quite interesting considering the fact that on earth climate change is a threat to the existence of humanity. May be, Chinese people are not contributing to reducing carbon footprint. In the 1970s, US did research on remote viewing. In any potential future, climate change was a problem and some coastal cities were under water. It is unfortunate we seem not to care about future generations rather than ourselves. The kind of discrimination we see, that is exactly.
