Manufacturing is power. How the West forgot this is difficult to imagine. The truth is that the majority of people are too lazy and too scared to act. They are so afraid they will stick to the same environment even as it strangles them and those they care most about. In this case it applies to the whole world.

As those of you who read far into the past know, my blog entries (and books) deal with both the theoretical, the emotional and the practical aspects of things.
In China's weaponized economy (Amazon) this matter is discussed in detail. This article shows that controlling the manufacturing of the world is controlling the world. The united states, based around a corrupt and largely sleeping government, allowed our manufacturing base to be destroyed and continues to ignore the consequences.
Something can be done and anyone interested, should consider the lessons outlined in book. Others should learn Chinese.
But this is more than about economics and world dominance, it is about diversity and survival. It is about a philosophy of the future that makes sense to those who are alive today and to those who will be alive tomorrow.
