The transfer of technology and manufacturing to china is a hidden war.
Is it a coincidence or is it a studied and systematic undertaking? What is a coincidence? A coincidence is something that happens by accident, without design. China is taking one step after another to see that technology and manufacturing goes to China. The primary actions they have taken is to provide government assistance, to provide labor at low prices, without regard for the environment or the workers OTHER than those necessary to MAXIMIZE THE EFFICIENT DELIVERY. China has manipulated it's currency to ensure that their labor and materials are provided at a discount.
This has been conducted over a period of decades. Even if it was originally coincidental, at some point, it has become intentional.
China is conducting war. The US government is guilty of gross incompetence if not treason for failing to recognize this or take action.
Education will go with the money and the technology. It is the schools where the scholarly, soothing catchphrases which calmed a nervous population originated. Instead of screaming warnings, there were platitudes because the intelligence of the scholars did not go out far enough.
There was no lack of wisdom, no lack of learning, just too much focus on one area of study, too short term an analysis within that area of study. Perhaps the moral is that every writing of economics should have a section dedicated to the effect on war and extremely long term intelligence or even medium or short term intelligence.
This soothing propaganda, originated in the United States by people who were patriotic. They embraced the movement of jobs and manufacturing to China and made it seem safe, insulated. But Martin Niemöller warned “First they came for the communists…then the Jews, then they came for me…” Now, the communists have come after the schools.
Of course, the only challenge to our way of life and our schools in not the Chinese. They are only the most immediate. What we need to do use long term intelligence and not just immediate intelligence or our war with China will have no meaning. But more on this later.Education will go with the money and the technology. It is the schools where the scholarly, soothing catchphrases which calmed a nervous population originated.

Our leaders are foolish. As our government focused on what they envisioned as the "true" enemy, political opponents in the United States, they watched as industries were taken, the jobs of various groups, the cheap plastics makers, the machine tool makers, the spare parts, and eventually the schools all started to move overseas.
Our leaders failed to see the danger and those that did failed to raise the hue and cry even in the face of this mortal disaster. Term limits are only one answer, the current congress must be replaced and ill gotten gains must be examined. Any group that has raided trust funds to maintain a fiction on their people should not be treated with great deference in their retirements or in their work.
