Lance Sjogren observes:

Biden talks about how we need to compete with China. So what we need is more lying, cheatring, and stealing? Because those are the standards by which commerce is run in mainland China due to its Mafia-style government which dictates how businesses must be run.a

Tim adds:

I remember when Bill Clinton was running for President and all he could do was gush about Germany and Japan. Well, where are they now? Germany is still the industrial heart of Europe but has been faltering for a while now, and Japan, which everyone was terrified was "taking over" back then, is now an afterthought. Why? Because both of these countries adopted the "guided economy" principle. Had we modeled ourselves on them as Clinton proposed we would be stumbling too.

Just because someone is ahead temporarily doesn't mean they are actually better. Slow and steady often wins the race. But the Demo-Left wants us to recreate America in China's communist image. China may not be a major player in 20, 30 years. They really weren't 30 years ago. Why assume they are the future?
