> china taxes the shit out of their citizens > china gives that money to a specific computer chip factory > chink factory can now sell chips for a small fraction of the cost to make it > americans don't even build the factories to create these chips because we can just buy them cheap as shit > china now gets to "set the standards" on this niche market lmao america could mass produce anything china can do, but if they want to devalue their currency, then that's fine by us.
