    The USA is the consumer that lifted over 500 million Chinese out of poverty and lead to the advanced modern economy that China has today and the USA has been able to maintain low inflation and switch to an advanced economy thanks to Chinese exports so both sides need each other but even the USA and Japan which are very friendly with each other had trade wars in the 1980s-90s so just because there are trade issues does not mean the 2 are enemies but instead can be very friendly and have close and strong relations even with a trad war, it's not a big deal as it seems.

    If China dominates the production and the technologies as a company, it could have lowered the production and raised the price for higher profits. This is what an American company (Apple, Tesla, Microsoft, etc.) would do. But, there are so many companies in China competing against each other. This cause the dropping prices. But, they are still making profits. In fact, it is an exact market driven economy to cause this efficiency boost. Mrs. Tai said it is a non-market approach only because she (and Biden administration) conveniently views China as ONE company. If you ever visit China, you will know how strong domestic competitions in China. It is really a market driven approach. The only issue is that US fails to develop new technologies or products taking advantages of low-cost Chinese products. Instead, we force TSMC to transfer their semiconductor technology back to US. TSMC has made it clear that TSMC in US will make products 50% more expensive than in Taiwan. I guess, US government will have to force US companies to purchase more expensive semiconductor products from TSMC US. This example is just to show how weak US industries have become.

    Good point, however its important to remember that both China and the USA manipulate trade, in China it is the usage of Dollars to maintain a Yuan value that benefits export and for the USA it is using tariffs to maintain local industry that costs more than Chinese exports. That is overall very small issue and both sides can take actions like this and still have a very friendly and large trade and relations, it's important to remember that this is very normal, the USA and Japan had the same issues in the 1980s-90s, and now China and the USA, it's not a surprise and is not a problem for still having very good relations.

    Well it's not just over production but the export of it and the manipulation over currency values but the USA and Japan had the same issues in the past so it does not mean the two can't be friend and have strong relations even countries in EU have between them trade wars and issues like dumping grain and blocking imports it's actually pretty normal. Also India has blocked many Chinese imports to maintain local industry. Even China block USA tech software for the same reason to support local tech.

The world order is not changing becasue if China were to stop exporting to the west, the hundreds of millions of Chinese lifted out of poverty would go back in to poverty and that would make them very angary people which would lead to civil war inside of China so the Communist Party cannot allow that to happen and as such will never attack Taiwan as long as trade with the west continues, on top of this, Russia and BRICS nations depend on selling resources to China in order to manufacture with it goods for the west, if China were to invade Taiwan, then the trade with the west would collapse and lead to a dramatic collapse of Chinese demand for BRICS and Russian resources leading to their collapse as well. The risk of a Taiwan invasion to BRICS, Russia and China is far too great which is why it will never happen. Only if Nationalist Chinese take over the Chinese Government by force, then everything can change, but as long as the Communist party of China remains in power there is no risk of Taiwan invasion.
