Pharmaceuticals are almost as bad (though hopefully they don't include tracking chips). They have undercut all U.S. raw material manufactures so that over 80% here have shut down.

Last year, I was at a presentation given by a security maven. Over the years, this person has been tasked, by our government (as well as private industry) to "go deep" into computers and other electronics that were going to be used. Attendees were told, in NO uncertain terms, that Lenovo products left the factory in China with spyware/malware already installed.
On the other hand, 100% of Microsoft operating systems have been shipped with spyware and malware since the inception of the windows95 operating system.

I get it, but, you know, its far, far, far, far more complicated than that.
no one said it would be easy
But the US is in danger of becoming just like China, a nation or low wages that can't afford to buy the basics. Poor education, no job.
With breathtaking infrastructure that no one will use ......... well, maybe not that part.
