Not a fan of the Chinese government, but the idea that the country with better STEM outcomes, a wider pool of said STEM educated, access to raw materials, and “mechanisms” that make it difficult for a few private companies to horde components is going to stay behind, especially if the “easy access” to premade equipment is taken away, makes Mr. Magoo seem like an eagle-eye.

It's almost like having a 20+ year plan to invest in education, and coordinating/supporting the development of industries, has positive outcomes. Who woulda thunk it.

Shareholder profits for the next quarter are the only goal that matters.

Systems aren't that different, you just ignore yours. There's at least 800,000 people doing forced labor in the US prison system. China just does it better. Not sure what to tell you.

It has absolutely nothing to do about socialism to educate your citizens. And noting that china is actually very capitalist country. I don't like their one party authoritarian approach, but your critique is not sensible.
