The wind has certainly shifted, and the United States will no longer allow China to win easily. Should have been obvious since 2016.

I think people who think the US will collapse by itself and that China doesn't have to do anything new or aggressive need to get their heads checked. US is filled with many bright people making new technology every day, American dysfunction is more complex than it is presented on here.

Yes, because allowing China access to American technology without political subordination is considered "letting China win" to Washington today. Washington is committed to fighting China, and developing an economic model to counter that is what is needed to prevail.

But this thread is about vertical integration not about China access to US tech! Duh.

It is like a double-edged sword. Obama once banned the export of supercomputer chips to China, they wanted to prevent China from using supercomputers to simulate nuclear explosions. But a year later, China developed its own native chips. If the United States can foresee the future, it will continue to export supercomputer chips. This does not stop China from developing its own supercomputer chip, but will slow the research process (3-4 years) and help American corporations make more money.

Current US strategy, is it working or not. Only the future can answer.

Add CNC machines and satellites to that list as well. US out satellites on the ITAR list and it hollowed out the US satellite industry.
